Confirmation is one of the Church's three Sacraments of Initiation, the other two being Baptism and Holy Eucharist (Holy Communion). Confirmation is the sacrament that completes the graces given to us at Baptism. It gives us the graces we need to grow stronger and more resilient in our faith. It increases the theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity first given to us in Baptism. It bonds us more tightly to Christ and his Church. It gives us the courage to more fully immerse ourselves into the Church's three-fold apostolic mission (as priests, prophets, and kings, that is, her sanctifying, teaching, and governing missions). It strengthens us to be more perfect and faithful Christians, especially as courageous witnesses to the world, and marks us in an invisible way as Christians clothed with these graces.
