"Confirmation deepens our baptismal life that calls us to be missionary witnesses of Jesus Christ in our families, neighborhoods, society, and the world.  . . .  We receive the message of faith in a deeper and more intensive manner with great emphasis given to the person of Jesus Christ, who asked the Father to give the Holy Spirit to the Church for building up the community in loving service." (United States Catholic Catechism for Adults)

Confirmation completes our initiation into the Church and seals us with the gifts of the Holy Spirit, which we first received at Baptism. This is a Sacrament of sending forth. It is with this sacrament that we are sent out into the world to bring Christ to all those in need of His grace.
