Our Lady of La Salette will be enforcing new requirements in regard to celebrating Quinceñera's. 

As of 2025, the Catholic Church in the United States has introduced updated guidelines and formation programs for quinceañera celebrations, emphasizing spiritual preparation and alignment with Church teachings.

A quinceañera is both a wonderful cultural event as well as a religious milestone in a young woman's life. Preparing for this event includes reviewing the Faith, understanding its role in our life, and reflecting on our own vocation in life.
