The Sacrament of Confirmation is one of the sacraments of Christian initiation. Through the Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit to be true witnesses of Christ, and more strictly obliged to spread and defend the faith by word and deed.
At Holy Ghost, Confirmation for youth is ordinarily celebrated during the Fall of a student's junior year of high school. Preparation for this sacrament begins in ninth grade and includes instruction, spiritual formation (retreats and days of recollection), and the development of a sense of sharing in community life (service hours in Church, school, and community).
While there are specific meeting times for Confirmation preparation, all youth are strongly encouraged to join and be a part of Youth Ministry which encompasses all facets of living out our Catholic faith through spirituality, fellowship, fun activities, and charity.
