The sacrament of Confirmation is the acceptance of the Church's mission to spread and defend the faith. Confirmation seals the gifts of the Holy Spirit (wisdom, knowledge, counsel, understanding fortitude piety & fear of the Lord) within us that we can more faithfully carry out our task of spreading and defending the faith.
The sacrament of Confirmation is one of the three sacraments of initiation, together with Baptism and Confirmation. Confirmation strenghthens the grace of Baptism by a special outpouring of the giftsof the Holy Spirit, which seal or "confirm" the baptized in union with Christ and equip them for active participation in the worship and apostolic life of the Church.
