Probably the same person who scheduled my nieces confirmation at 3:00PM on a Wednesday afternoon in November. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Do they not give people an education so that they can get jobs. You know, work? 9-5. Give us a break!!!!

Our HS graduations start at noon on the day before the last day of school for non seniors.They do it that early because 3-4 other Hs's use the same stadium for their ceremonies the same dayChat Icon

Same person that scheduled my stepsons confirmation, at 2:00 on the Monday before Halloween. It was supposed to be 10am, but his mom got them to switch him to the afternoon. Who does this? Their confirmation rehearsal is on Friday night at 8pm, why not be a little convenient and have the confirmation itself at night. Chat Icon I mean, they want your donation to the church, well, um I have to work in order to give you that donation!!!Chat Icon

Every other year they've always been on a Friday night, or Saturday or Sunday.

I don't think I'll be able to go since I won't have any more personal days...

Confirmations are not scheduled by the church. They are scheduled by the Bishop's office. The church submits the dates they want and the Bishop decides on one of them, or none of them and gives one of his own. There are only 4 Bishops for all of Nassau and Suffolk and quite alot of churches, hence the early times.
