Lesson 5: The Effects of the Sacrament of Confirmation
The main effect of the Sacrament of Confirmation is the special outpouring of the Holy Spirit that was also given to the Apostles on the day of Pentecost.
This outpouring of the Holy Spirit clothes us in the armor of God, giving us a “special strength of the Holy Spirit to spread and defend the faith by word and action as true witnesses of Christ, to confess the name of Christ boldly, and never to be ashamed of the Cross” (CCC 1303).
The outpouring of the Holy Spirit received in Confirmation also increases in us the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, first received at Baptism.

Lesson 4: The Celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation
The matter, form, minister, recipient, effects, and symbols of the Sacrament of Baptism.
Anointing with oil has held special meaning since ancient times, and the Sacrament of Confirmation shares in this today.
Confirmation is sometimes called the “Sacrament of Christian maturity,” but it is important not to confuse spiritual maturity with physical maturity.
There have been many examples of young people throughout the centuries who have fought for Christ with the strength of the Holy Spirit and even given their lives for Him.

Lesson 2: Exploring the Sacrament of Confirmation with Sacred Art
Christ’s promise of an outpouring of the Holy Spirit was fulfilled at Pentecost when the Holy Spirit descended upon the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Apostles.
Filled by the Spirit, Mary and the Apostles proclaimed the Good News of Jesus Christ to all the nations.
The Sacrament of Confirmation makes the baptized more perfectly bound to the Church and enriches them with a special strength of the Holy Spirit.
A dove, fire, wind, water, a pillar of cloud, and anointing with oil are all symbols of the Holy Spirit.
