Confirmations continue across diocese before Easter

Bishop Mark Hagemoen celebrated the Sacrament of Confirmation with youth from several parishes March 10-17, 2026, including:

March 10 at St. Patrick Parish, Saskatoon;
March 14 at St. Mary Parish, Macklin, SK;
March 15 at St. James Parish, Wilkie, SK;
March 15 at St. Peter Parish, Unity, SK;
March 17 and 18 at the Cathedral of the Holy Family, Saskatoon;
March 21 at St. Theresa Parish, Lintlaw.

These follow earlier confirmations at St. Philip Neri and St. Joseph Parishes in Saskatoon.

After Easter, the schedule will continue, beginning with Our Lady of Lourdes Parish, Saskatoon on April 17, and Saint Anne Parish, Saskatoon on April 18.

An earlier start to the bishop’s confirmation schedule was necessary in order to fit in the 37 celebrations across the diocese this year, which will conclude at the end of June.
