"Confirmation is one of the 7 Sacraments instituted by Jesus Christ and continues in the Catholic Church, of which He founded."- Roman Catechism

As the Roman Catechism teaches, "a Baptized person when anointed with the sacred chrism by the Bishop, with the accompanying solemn words...becomes stronger with the strength of a new power, and thus begins to be a perfect soldier of Christ." Confirmation is not just a "graduation" from religious education, as it is sadly sometimes treated. Rather, Confirmation makes a Catholic a 'soldier for Christ' who is called on to live, defend, and spread the Catholic Faith.

The Sacrament of Confirmation unites us more firmly with Christ. The Holy Spirit gives us strength to spread and defend our faith through 7 gifts - Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Fortitude, Knowledge, Piety, and Fear of the Lord.

While Confirmation is administered in our diocese in 9th, no one is ever too old to be confirmed!
