Sacrament of Confirmation

Confirmation is the Sacrament that strengthens the new life that was begun in Baptism. The Ritual of the Sacrament says: "Be sealed with the Holy Spirit".  Confirmation seals a person with the gifts of Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Fortitude (Courage), Knowledge, Piety (Reverence), Fear of the Lord (Wonder and Awe).

Also referred to as a maturity in faith, Confirmation is celebrated with our young adults
once they have completed instruction, retreats, and service work.
