ADULT
CONFIRMATION PROGRAM
The Archdiocesan Adult Confirmation Program
is designed for practicing adult (18+) Catholics seeking
the sacrament of Confirmation, who have been baptized,
have received their first Holy Communion, and have
been educated in the Catholic faith through Catholic
Schools or religious education programs.
The Archdiocesan Adult Confirmation Program
will present an overview of the essentials of the Catholic
Faith, focusing on immediate catechesis for the recep-
tion of the Sacrament of Confirmation.
This is a program of adult faith formation that
combines presentations, group discussion, reflection and
prayer. The sessions will cover Sacred Scripture and
Tradition, the Creed, prayer and spirituality, the Church,
Catholic social teaching and meaning of the Sacrament
of Confirmation.
This program is not for adults who are unbap-
tized, or baptized but uncatechized (not practicing
Catholics); who would benefit from participation in their
parish's RCIA process. Pastor's permission is required to
participate in this program.

Catechism on the Holy Spirit
by Saint John Vianney
A soul that possesses the Holy Spirit tastes such sweet-
ness in prayer, that it finds the time always too short; it never
loses the holy presence of God. Such a heart, before our good
Savior in the Holy Sacrament of the Altar, is a bunch of grapes
under the wine press. The Holy Spirit forms thoughts and sug-
gests words in the hearts of the just. . . . Those who have the
Holy Spirit produce nothing bad; all the fruits of the Holy Spir-
it are good. Without the Holy Spirit all is cold; therefore, when
we feel we are losing our fervor, we must instantly make a no-
vena to the Holy Spirit to ask for faith and love. . . . See, when
we have made a retreat or a jubilee, we are full of good desires:
these good desires are the breath of the Holy Ghost, which has
passed over our souls, and has renewed everything, like the
warm wind which melts the ice and brings back the spring. . . .
You who are not great saints, you still have many moments
when you taste the sweetness of prayer and of the presence of
God: these are visits of the Holy Spirit. When we have the Ho-
ly Spirit, the heart expands--bathes itself in divine love. A fish
never complains of having too much water, neither does a good
Christian ever complain of being too long with the good God.
There are some people who find religion wearisome, and it is
because they have not the Holy Spirit.
If the damned were asked: Why are you in Hell? They
would answer: For having resisted the Holy Spirit. And if the
saints were asked, why are you in Heaven? They would an-
swer: For having listened to the Holy Spirit. When good
thoughts come into our minds, it is the Holy Spirit who is visit-
ing us. The Holy Spirit is a power. The Holy Spirit supported
Saint Simeon on his column; He sustained the martyrs. With-
out the Holy Spirit, the martyrs would have fallen like the
leaves from the trees. When the fires were lighted under them,
the Holy Spirit extinguished the heat of the fire by the heat of
divine love. The good God, in sending us the Holy Spirit, has
treated us like a great king who should
send his minister to guide one of his sub-
jects, saying, "You will accompany this
man everywhere, and you will bring him
back to me safe and sound.” How beauti-
ful it is, my children, to be accompanied
by the Holy Spirit! He is indeed a good
Guide; and to think that there are some
who will not follow Him. The Holy Spirit
is like a man with a carriage and horse,
who should want to take us to Pans. We
should only have to say "yes,” and to get
into it. It is indeed an easy matter to say
"yes"!. . . Well, the Holy Spirit wants to
take us to Heaven; we have only to say
"yes,” and to let Him take us there.
