What is Confirmation?
Confirmation is a Sacrament in the Catholic Church in which the one who is being confirmed (confirmandi) receives the gifts of the Holy Spirit through the imposition of hand and anointing with oils by the Bishop. It’s considered a Sacrament of Initiation which means that it brings you deeper into communion with the Church.
The Confirmation process is a journey in which the candidate will explore different aspects of Faith, Church Ministry and Service. It will also be a time of formation as candidates will be finding their identity as Catholic Youth or Young Adult within the Catholic Church. This process necessitates a full commitment from the Candidate, Parents/Guardians, Sponsors, and Church members as this is a Sacrament that, by definition, calls for a time of reflection on personal faith and a more active participation in the life of the Church.
The Confirmation Programme is specifically developed to engage young Catholics in a meaningful conversation about the genius of Catholicism. It teaches and inspires teens to respond to God’s grace.
