Confirmation
At St Mary’s Acton, Confirmation is a joyful moment when we affirm our faith and receive the Holy Spirit’s blessing to grow in God’s love
What we do
Contextualise your life within a sense of eternity
Confirmation is a joyful and important step in the faith journey of those who have been baptised. At St Mary’s Acton, it is a time when individuals make a public and personal commitment to follow Jesus Christ and to live as active members of the Church. During the service, the Bishop visits St Mary’s to lay hands on each candidate and pray for the Holy Spirit to strengthen, guide, and encourage them in their daily life and faith. It marks a deepening of one’s relationship with God and a closer connection to the St Mary’s church community.
Our clergy and team will guide you through the preparation and the service itself, helping you explore the meaning of baptism and the promises it involves. Surrounded by family, friends, and the wider church community, baptism is both a personal commitment and a moment of great celebration.
Get in touch with us to find out more — we would love to hear from you.
