About
In Confirmation there is a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the baptized person. We are given increased love and strength to serve the Church, in order that we may be enabled to bring not only ourselves but others to God. To signify the gift of the Spirit, the Church anoints the confirmed with chrism, a sacred oil used as a sign of abundance and joy and as an indicator between the connection between Baptism and Confirmation. Those who are anointed now share more completely in the mission of Jesus Christ.
St. Nicholas Parish has a 2 year program for Confirmation starting in the 9th grade with the celebration of Confirmation ending in the 10th grade. Adults who are interested in receiving this sacrament should contact Father Tom.
