Confirmation is a very important sacrament for our individual spiritual lives and in the life of the Church. Through the sacrament of confirmation, we receive an outpouring of the Holy Spirit, a special character on our soul, and the sacramental grace to live as a soldier for Christ.
When we choose to be confirmed, we choose to commit ourselves to living our whole lives in union with the Catholic Church and with God’s laws.
Preparation for confirmation is very important so that all who are confirmed understand fully the Christian life they are committed to living out. We should take preparation for confirmation very seriously, and we should keep all people who are preparing to be confirmed in our prayers.
