    The Sacrament of Confirmation
    The SacramentsGifts of the Holy SpiritConfirmation
    6 lessonsThe sacrament of Confirmation is commonly associated with human maturation and adulthood. It's not surprising that this sacrament is sometimes referred to as the “sacrament of Christian maturity” (CCC 1308). Through Confirmation, which is one of the sacraments of Christian initiation, Christ brings about our full initiation into his body, the Church, and equips us to witness to the world. But, what exactly happens during the liturgical rite of Confirmation, and why are those being confirmed anointed with chrism? What is sacramental character? How does the Holy Spirit change us in this sacrament, and what graces do we receive? How do we live out the Beatitudes with the Gift of the Holy Spirit? And, why isn't Confirmation just a graduation? You'll learn about the answers to these questions and more in this course on the sacrament of Confirmation.
