    • What is Confirmation?

      In the Sacrament of Confirmation, the Holy Spirit is bestowed on the faithful through the laying on of hands. It imprints a permanent spiritual mark on the Christian’s soul. Confirmation brings an increase and deepening of baptismal grace:

      • Roots us more deeply in our relationship with God the Father
      • Unites us more firmly to Jesus Christ
      • Increases the gifts of the Holy Spirit in us
      • Renders our bond with the Church more perfect
      • Gives us special strength to confess the name of Christ boldly and never to be ashamed of the Cross.
       

      Gifts of the Holy Spirit:

      • Wisdom and Understanding
      • Right Judgement and Courage
      • Knowledge and Reverence
      • Holy fear in God’s presence
    • Preparation

      For Adults, the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) class serves as preparation for the Sacrament of Confirmation.

      Students enrolled in our CCD program are prepared for two years prior to Confirmation. Please contact Rita Selby to enroll your child.

    • Sponsors

      • A sponsor must be someone other than the parent of the one to be confirmed.
      • A sponsor must have received the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation and Holy Eucharist, and must be at least 16 years of age.
      • A sponsor must be leading a life in harmony with the faith and the role to be undertaken; therefore, if married, must be married in the Church and if single, must be striving to live a chaste life and therefore cannot be living with a person outside of marriage.
