Is receiving the sacrament of Confirmation nothing more than graduating from religious education? Is it just the object of a mature choice to practice the Catholic faith, or a rite of passage?
No! Confirmation is much more than these common misconceptions of the sacrament. It's a sending forth, a commissioning, by which you are entering more richly into Christ himself, and into communion with all those who live in him.
In this latest episode of Aquinas 101, join Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P., a Catholic priest and Dominican friar from the Province of St. Joseph, as he debunks five common misunderstandings about Confirmation and explains what the Church really teaches about the sacrament of Confirmation.
