While you may be proceeding with plans for an in-person celebration of Confirmation at some point in 2021, chances are that your Confirmation prep is taking place this fall in the midst of the pandemic. Of course, this means that you are scrambling to figure out how to do Confirmation prep remotely! Never fear, Confirmed in the Spirit—the popular Confirmation preparation program from Loyola Press—is now available digitally! This includes the following:

Knowing that many of you have a two-year Confirmation preparation program, Loyola Press also offers a digital version of Called to Be Catholic, which you can use for Year 1 to provide a comprehensive overview of the essentials of the Catholic faith. An At-Home Guide is available free to use with the digital student book.

All of the above are also available digitally in Spanish through the same Digital eLearning Catalog.

For assistance, contact your Loyola Press Educational Consultant or call Customer Service at 800-621-1008.
