Confirmation completes Baptism, by which in the laying on of hands and the anointing with Chrism Oil, which first happened at Baptism, we are confirmed with the fullness of the Holy Spirit. We are reminded of our participation in the ministry and mission of Jesus, and strengthened to follow Jesus more closely.
Once a year St Ignatius Parish invites children who are already baptised and who are in Year 3 or above to join the Parish Sacramental Preparation Programme.
