Immaculate Conception Church
The Sacraments - Confirmation
This sacrament is the full
initiation into the Church community.
Confirmation completes the grace of Baptism by a special outpouring of
the gifts of the Holy Spirit, which seal or “confirm” the baptized in union with
Christ and equip them for active participation in the worship and apostolic life
of the Church. This usually occurs in the 8th grade or the age of 13. For additional information contact
Kathleen Kramer at (865) 687-3448 kmrk88@gmail.com
Adults who have been baptized but have not yet received the sacrament of Confirmation should contact Marian Howard (865) 522-1508 or icaff@bellsouth.net for additional information. Ask about the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) for non-Catholics.
