Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. - Acts 2:2-4
One common misconception about confirmation is that it is a “graduation” or “end point” in one’s journey of faith. Far from it! The catechism explains that preparation for confirmation should lead a Christian into a deeper relationship with Christ and the Holy Spirit as well as “awaken a sense of belonging to the Church of Jesus Christ” (1309). Our new diocesan guidelines focus especially on these elements of personal relationship with God and continued involvement in the Church.
