The sacrament of Confirmation is one of the three initiation sacraments, connected to both the sacraments of Baptism and Eucharist. The reception of Confirmation is required in order for initiation into the Catholic faith to be complete. Confirmation ratifies our Baptism, roots us more deeply in love, unites us closer to Christ, increases in us gifts of the Spirit and binds us more tightly to the Church. In Confirmation, we receive a special strength to live our faith more fully and witness to what we believe as disciples of Jesus Christ.

Come Holy Spirit, and fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in us the fire of Your Love. Send forth Your Spirit and they shall be created and You shall renew the face of the earth.
Oh God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit instructed the hearts of the faithful, Grant that by the same Spirit the gifts of Wisdom, Understanding, Knowledge, Counsel, Piety, Fortitude and fear of the Lord. We ask this though Christ Our Lord. Amen.
