Confirmation

Confirmation perfects Baptismal grace; It is the Sacrament which give the Holy Spirit in order to root us more deeply in the divine filiation, incorporate us more firmly into Christ, strengthen our bond with the Church, associate us more closely with her mission, and help us bear witness to the Christian faith in words accompanied by deeds.

Confirmation, like Baptism, imprints a spiritual mark or indelible character on the Christian’s soul; for this reason one can receive this sacrament only once in one’s life.

A candidate for Confirmation who has attained the age of reason must profess the faith, be in the state of grace, have the intention of receiving the sacrament, and be prepared to assume the role of discipline and witness to Christ, both within the ecclesial community and in temporal affairs.

Is your child in grade 7 or above?

This sacrament is the Candidate saying YES, I want to be open to the Holy Spirit and become Catholic.  I will practice my faith.  I will do the work of Jesus.  It is offered to children in grade 7 and older. Catholic school curriculum covers Confirmation in grades 7, 8 and 9.  Waiting only enhances the candidate’s knowledge.  Note that candidates and parents attend the sessions.
