First Communion
First Communion is a two year process at St. Timothy. The earliest a child can receive the sacrament is in second grade. Usually, the first year of the program is spent in general class with other students at the same grade level. The second year is a class with other students who are specifically preparing for First Communion.
Contact the Faith Formation Office for more information.

Adult Confirmation
There are two ways to receive Confirmation as an adult at our Parish:
- If you have been away from the church for a while and have questions about your faith, the best option is the RCIA process which meets every Wednesday, 7:00 pm in the Parish Office from October through May. Confirmation and First Eucharist are received at St. Timothy during the Easter Vigil. You can get more information from our Parish Office at (650) 342-2468 or email our staff members.
- A second option for active Catholics who have not been confirmed is a program we offer during Lent every other year. It involves 8-10 hours of instruction in the parish, and an interview with a priest. Confirmation is conferred by the bishop or archbishop or his representative at St. Timothy on the same day the teenagers are confirmed. You can get more information from our Parish Office at (650) 342-2468 or email our staff members.
Marriage
Couples requesting to be married at St. Timothy must contact one of our parish priests at (650) 342-2468 at least six months in advance of the wedding date. Couples must attend marriage preparation either in the parish (four sessions) or any other approved program.
Weddings are normally celebrated on Saturdays.
