Dear Friends,

We have met with Father Ashley Harrington, temporary administrator of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church and discussed the dates and times for the celebration of Confirmation. Due to the pandemic, we are required to set limits on church capacity. We will celebrate Confirmation with two Masses on two weekends in October for Confirmation candidates and some family members:

Saturday, October 17th at 11 AM
Rehearsal in the Church on Tuesday, October 13th at 7 PM

Sunday, October 18th at 2 PM
Rehearsal in the Church on Wednesday, October 14th at 7 PM

Saturday, October 24th at 11 AM
Rehearsal in the Church on Tuesday, October 20th at 7 PM

Sunday, October 25th at 2 PM
Rehearsal in the Church on Wednesday, October 21st at 7 PM

Our church capacity permitted at Mass is set at 100 people. This may change as we move forward and we will keep you updated if we receive any information from the Archdiocese of Newark. The Masses will be live streamed so that other family members may view the celebration remotely. You will receive a letter in the mail in the coming days, with which date you’ll be assigned to.

We look forward to celebrating this important ritual in the life of our young members. Below you will find the date and time of your child’s Confirmation Mass as well as the date and time for a brief rehearsal. The rehearsal is for the Confirmation candidate and sponsor (or a stand-in for the sponsor) to attend. Face masks must be worn in the church.

Thank you for your cooperation as we begin the preparation to celebrate.

Elliot Guerra
Director of Confirmation
