"For ‘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.’”
Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1285
The Sacrament of Confirmation is separate and distinct from the normal religious education (CCE) program and has been developed to assist parents in the preparation of young adults so they may fully participate in the sacramental life of the Church. Confirmation preparation includes mandatory 1st and 2nd year retreats and participation in service projects.
