Baptism, the Eucharist, and the Sacrament of Confirmation together constitute the "sacraments of Christian initiation," whose unity must be safeguarded. It must be explained to the faithful that the reception of the sacrament of Confirmation is necessary for the completion of baptismal grace. For "by the sacrament of Confirmation, [the baptized] are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit. Hence they are, as true witnesses of Christ, more strictly obliged to spread and defend the faith by word and deed." CCC 1285
Adults seeking to complete their Sacraments of Initiation through the Sacrament of Confirmation should contact Genni Sayers. The celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation for Adults is held on Pentecost Sunday each year. Candidates for the sacrament attend 5 weeks of preparation classes to be held following Easter. This preparation process is open to any adult parishioners 18 and older who are out of High School.
