Quinceañera
Quinceañera Celebration
This occasion is more than a celebration; it is an acknowledgment of life's blessings and an invocation for your daughter to rise to her baptismal call to serve within our faith community. In participating in a Mass, we trust it will draw your daughter and your entire family nearer to God.
Basic Requirements
- She must be Catholic.
- She must have received Baptism and First Holy Communion.
- Parents have an obligation to enroll their children in a catechetical program to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation, but Confirmation is not required for your daughter to schedule a Quinceañera.
- She, along with others involved in the Quinceañera, must go to confession before the celebration.
