There is a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the baptized person. To signify the gift of the Spirit, the Church anoints the confirmed with chrism, a sacred oil used as a sign of abundance and joy. Confirmation is held in the fall of 10th Grade at St. Thomas.
Adults who are seeking the grace of the holy spirit through the sacrament of Confirmation should contact Fr. Josh for more information.
