Confirmation

The Sacrament of Confirmation normally occurs within the context of the Eucharistic Liturgy which is the culmination of the candidate’s preparation. 

Confirmation is a parish celebration and its planning should reflect the community’s role in both the preparation and celebration of this sacrament.   Confirmation is part of the ritual of initiation which brings persons to new life in Christ and full membership in the Christian community.

The links on this page contain important information that is intended to help parish personnel in their preparation of the liturgy of Confirmation.

An understanding of this information will enable parishes to be more confident about the mechanics of the ceremony and allow them to use their energies for the celebration of a joyful, uplifting liturgy for the candidates and the gathered assembly.
