Sunday Sermon, May 19th -- The Sacrament of Confirmation (Pentecost Sunday)

 The Catechism of the Council of Trent instructs priests to preach about the sacrament of Confirmation each year, especially on the feast of Pentecost.  We discuss the meaning of the name (that God confirms the graces he first gave to us in Baptism), the importance of confirmation, the proper age for receiving confirmation, and the significance that the Bishop is the proper minister of this sacrament.  Finally, we point out that this sacrament of confirmation enables us to spread the Gospel and even to suffer for the Faith.
