    Safe Environment

Confirmation is the final Sacrament of Initiation (Baptism, Reconciliation, Eucharist, Confirmation). This Sacrament can be received either in high school or as an adult. Confirmation conveys the Holy Spirit upon the Catholic recipient, strengthening his or her faith, continuing the work God began in that individual at Baptism.

The Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit

• Wisdom
• Understanding
• Knowledge
• Fortitude or Courage
• Counsel
• Piety or Love
• Fear of the Lord

More information about the Sacrament of Confirmation, and how to prepare for it at Gesu, can be found in the links at right.
