However…You are not meant to be always confined to a crib. You are not to remain a baby all

your life or to forever be dependent on your

parents.

You are expected to

grow…

How about your Soul?Doesn't it contain within itself a vital

force too?Within you, fresh and pure, is the vital force of God’s grace that filled you in Baptism, and always with you is the Spirit of God, the source of life and all

vital forces…

In the same way that you are not expected to remain always a baby in a crib or in

your mother’s arms, you are not expected to be all your life an infant in the spiritual

sense.

•Confirmation means accepting

responsibility for your faith and

your choices in life.

CHILDHOOD is a time when you are told what to do. Stage of Dependence!

Young adult and teenage years are times when

you must do what is right on

your own.The choices you make are made not for recognition or reward but for choosing the right thing to do.

YOU DRIVE YOUR OWN LIFE

YOU ARE A JEEPNEY DRIVER!

DRIVE IT TO THE FULLEST!

CONFIRMATION means to make firm or solid what has gone before and what our parents, god parents and God have done.If you were baptized as a baby, you did not make that choice. It was done for

us. It was God’s gift to us.Baptism reminds us that God accepts us and loves us even before we can

respond.

OUR GROWTH

changes in our livesOur Soul evolves…

we have many stages and changes

in our spiritual journey.

CONFIFMATION MEANS GRACE

In Confirmation we receive the Holy Spirit.How does the Holy Spirit work is us?
