Why does our confirmation program require Christian service?

Why does our confirmation program require Christian service?

Just like every parish in our Archdiocese, St. Joseph Parish requires that Confirmation candidates complete a Christian service project before being confirmed. These hours are not like requirements you can complete to earn a badge in scouting. Rather, engaging in service projects gives you an opportunity to discover more about yourself and what you can do to make the world a better place. In helping others, you will discover new gifts and different interests that will help you better understand your place in the world and your responsibility to contribute your gifts to the human family.
