“By
the sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized are more perfectly bound to
the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit.
Hence they are, as true witnesses of Christ, more strictly obliged to
spread and defend the faith by word and deed.” (CCC 1285)
Confirmation, also familiar to us as one of the three sacraments of
initiation, strengthens and prepares us to carry out the mission of
Christ on earth. The Diocese of LaCrosse encourages any person between
the ages of 13-15 to enter a time of preparation to receive this
sacrament. Any student who shows openness to the gifts and
responsibilities of Confirmation and meets the diocesan requirements is
invited to take part in a 9-month journey towards the sacrament of
Confirmation. To learn more, contact the youth minister.
