Before Jesus ascended to the Father, He promised to send us His Spirit (John 16:7-8). We receive this Spirit first at Baptism, and that baptismal gift is deepened and strengthened when we receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. This sacrament, instituted by Christ, effects the “special outpouring of the Holy Spirit as once granted to the apostles on the day of Pentecost” (CCC1302)

Does your 8th Grade child need to receive Confirmation?
Children typically receive Confirmation in the 8th grade. Confirmation preparation begins in 7th grade.  Parish school children receive formation in school.
