Family Faith Formation: Welcome Home!

For Children Age 7 Or Younger:

If you have a child who has NOT been baptized and is age 7 or younger, please contact the parish office at 703-753-6700 and get signed up for a Baptismal Class.

After Father sees a prolonged commitment to the practice of your Faith (at least 3 months of Mass attendance) your child can be scheduled for the Sacrament of Baptism. 

In the meantime, this child, if at least 5.5 years old, can begin faith formation classes (even if awaiting baptism) by registering for the Family Faith Formation classes at Holy Trinity. Click HERE to get started. 

For Children Age 8 Or Older:

If you have a child who has NOT been baptized and is age 8 or older, please read the information below.

OCIC/OCIT Information

• Classes are Monday evenings 7:00-8:30pm.
• A parent is required to attend class with your child(ren).
• Classes are $100 per child.
• These classes are the FIRST year of sacramental preparation for the children. 
• Your child will be baptized and receive FHC after 2 consecutive years of formation.
• At the end of the school year, in the spring of 2026, there will be a required family interview for all candidates seeking CONFIRMATION. This family interview will be an assessment of readiness to move forward with the next year of formation. 
• This is no longer a TWO YEAR program for CONFIRMATION. Completion of 2 years of classes does not guarantee reception of CONFIRMATION.
• After 2 years of formation, reception of CONFIRMATION is dependent upon active participation in classes, regular attendance, timely completion of all assignments, and a successful interview with the clergy at the end of year one and year two. 
• You may not miss more than 4 classes the entire school year. If a class is missed, the parent is responsible for getting the make-up lesson and presenting the content to your child.
