Confirmation builds on our baptism and unleashes its potential.

As the Compendium says, “The effect of Confirmation is a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit like that of Pentecost. This outpouring impresses on the soul an indelible character and produces a growth in the grace of Baptism. It roots the recipient more deeply in divine sonship, binds him more firmly to Christ and to the Church and reinvigorates the gifts of the Holy Spirit in his soul. It gives a special strength to witness to the Christian faith” (Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, n. 268).

In the apostolates and schools guided by the Legionaries of Christ and by the members of Regnum Christi, formation courses are given to youth who wish to receive this sacrament to strengthen their faith and become courageous witnesses of Christ in the world. Some Regnum Christi members also help out as confirmation teachers and catechists in their parishes.
