The church celebrates the feast of Pentecost 50 days after Easter.
We live by the Spirit of God
The joy of the Holy Spirit will grow in us as we share faith with each other
Confirmation is a challenge for your child
Children grow and their faith needs to mature with them
The Holy Spirit is God’s gift to us
Confirmation offers parishes the opportunity to embrace the gifts of the Spirit

Confirmation is not about maturity, it is about initiation.
In Confirmation a sacred drama gently unfolds
Ritual involves sacred objects, words and actions.
The role of the sponsor is vital in Confirmation
The sponsor represents the believing community
A sense of belonging to the Christian family
