Holy Confirmation
Holy Confirmation is the completion of Holy Baptism, the giving of the full power of a Roman Catholic. “Confirmation” means a strengthening. This Holy Sacrament strengthens and increases the graces which we receive at Holy Baptism, particularly the capacity of bearing witness to Christ. To emphasize this, the Sacred Rite of Holy Confirmation includes a renewal of our holy baptismal promises. We become full-fledged members of the Holy Roman Catholic Church, lay apostles in the fullest sense. The Bishop normally confirms in a special ceremony. Usually, Holy Confirmation is celebrated at the end of the Eighth-grade year. Please watch the weekly bulletin beginning in August for the registration procedure.
Adults who are not confirmed may be confirmed when the Bishop comes or during the Easter Vigil. Please call Saint John the Evangelist Church Parish Office 337-276-4576, if you desire to receive the Sacrament of Holy Confirmation.
