CONFIRMATION

Now when the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent them Peter and John, who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit.For He had not yet fallen upon any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then they began laying their hands on them, and they were receiving the Holy Spirit. Acts 8:14-17

Confirmation is one of the three Sacraments of Initiation for Catholics. It is most often associated with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. It is a Catholic Sacrament of mature Christian commitment and a deepening of baptismal gifts.
