Confirmation Mass Sunday 29 May 2022 at 12 Noon
Our seven candidates will be confirmed at the 12 Noon Mass on Sunday 29th June by our area bishop - Bishop Nicholas Hudson. Please keep these young people in your prayers as they celebrate this Sacrament which marks their own commitment to the Catholic faith, with the help of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
31st January 2026, Saturday at 2:30pm in Our Lady of Hal Church
Our Lady of Hal RC Church Camden is recruiting for the following voice types (STB) as Guest Hal Singers to increase our quartet to an octet as and when required across the year.
Come and join us on the 6th of December from 5.15pm for the upcoming Joel’s Bar evening - Immerse, here at Our Lady of Hal. This is a time for young adults to meet together, be refreshed with the Holy Spirit through worship and prayer ministry and to build community with one another. There will be Mass beforehand and then a talk from an incredible speaker, before some mulled wine and social time! All are welcome so bring a friend, and if not then just bring yourself!! We’ll be diving into the hope that we have in Jesus, who is a sure anchor for the soul, and why the message of Christmas is needed now more than ever!
We hope to run a Confirmation Programme provided there are sufficient candidates. Confirmation, together with Baptism and the Eucharist, completes our initiation into the Church. In this sacrament, we receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit to help us live as adult Christians. Young people are normally confirmed in Year 9 or above. Older candidates may be invited to prepare through the RCIA programme. Requirements: 1. A Baptism certificate (if not baptised at Our Lady of Hal) 2. Regular Sunday Mass attendance. 3. Commitment to attend all preparation sessions 4. Choosing a saint’s name for Confirmation . 5. A practising Catholic sponsor (aged 16+, not a parent). The Confirmation Mass is usually celebrated by the Bishop during the Easter season. If you wish to apply, the candidate is to e-mail the parish priest: markdunglinson@rcdow.org.uk (copying in your parent or guardian) and explain why you wish to be confirmed. Closing date: 15th December 2025.
