Learning Model for Confirmation Program
In light of the ongoing pandemic, Holy Trinity Parish will adopt a hybrid model of learning for the Confirmation program during the 2020-2021 school year. Classes will meet two times a month on Sundays, once onsite and once online. All Sundays are obligatory for the faithful to participate in the Mass. Regularly attending Sunday Mass and receiving the Eucharist is salient to one’s preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation. When classes meet onsite, students are invited to attend the 10:30 AM Mass in Our Lady’s Hall, 227 Sea St. When classes meet online, students may participate in the Mass remotely by accessing the Holy Trinity Parish Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/holytrinityquincy/, CatholicTV at http://www.catholictv.org/, or another live/recorded Catholic Sunday Mass.
