Confirmation is the Sacrament that completes Baptism; in it the gift of the Holy Spirit is bestowed upon us. Anyone who freely decides to live a life as God’s child and asks for God’s Spirit under the signs of the imposition of hands and anointing with chrism receives the strength to witness to God’s love and might in word and deed. He or she is now a full-fledged, responsible member of the Catholic Church.
In Confirmation the soul of a baptized Christian is imprinted with a permanent seall that can be received only once and makrs this individuall forever as a Christian. The gift of the Holy Spirit is the strength from above in which this individual puts the grace of his or her Baptism into practice through his or her life and acts as a “witness” for Christ.
