What is confirmation?
Confirmation is the sacrament that completes baptism. Through the anointing with holy chrism and the laying on of hands, the Holy Spirit is given to strengthen the Christian for a life of faith and witness.
This rite seals the grace received at baptism and empowers the confirmed person to live more fully as a disciple of Christ. It is often celebrated during adolescence, but is open to anyone ready to affirm their faith with maturity and intention.
In the presence of the community, the candidate receives strength and courage to bear witness to the Gospel through daily life, service, and prayer.
