BAPTISM
The sacrament of confirmation is when a young member of the church who has received his/her baptism, first reconciliation, and first communion decides to become an adult within the church.
The church isn't a sacrament. The Catholic Church HAS seven sacraments, not all of them are received. The sacraments are baptism, reconciliation, first communion, confirmation, hold orders, marriage, and anointing of the sick.
Confirmation is a scrament that is normally taken as a young adult. Baptism, reconciliation, and first communion are all lead to a catholic by parents of a guardian. Confirmation is that person deciding whether or not they want to continue the catholic teachings of the church. Durning this sacrament the priest or bishop puts a cross of anointing oil on your forehead and blesses you with your chosen Saint name.
Confirmation is a sacrament in the Catholic Church where individuals receive the Holy Spirit to strengthen their faith. Communion, also known as the Eucharist, is the sacrament where Catholics receive the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Confirmation is typically received after baptism, while Communion can be received after the age of reason.
In the Catholic Church, the next is traditionally Confirmation.
Baptism is the first sacrament to be received. A person must be baptized before receiving the other sacraments.
To receive Confirmation one must be in a state of grace. One should receive the sacrament of Penance in order to be cleansed for the gift of the Holy Spirit. More intense prayer should prepare one to receive the strength and graces of the Holy Spirit with docility and readiness to act.
Roman Catholic AnswerYou must be a baptized Catholic. You should have made your First Holy Communion. There are some eastern Rites that Baptize and Confirm infants at the same time and immediately give them Holy Communion, I'm discussing Latin Rite Catholics here. Finally, you should be of an age where you choose to be confirmed, have been instructed sufficiently in the faith, and have recently made a good confession. If you receive the sacrament when you are in a state of mortal sin, you do not receive the grace of the sacrament. It is still given, but the grace will not be there while you are in a state of sin.
They received the Holy Spirit for the first time.
At First Communion the child receives Christ in the Blessed Sacrament for the very first time in his/her life(hence "FIRST"). At Confirmation, the young adult receives the Seal of the Holy Spirit.
It depends on when your diocese has chosen to celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation. In the United States, Confirmation can be celebrated anywhere between the age of reason (7 yrs) and age 16. So, if your diocese celebrates Confirmation in the second or third grade, then it will come before First Communion. But, if your diocese celebrates Confirmation in the eighth grade, then it would come after First Communion.
there are many types of sacraments, the first is baptism, then comes contrition, then Eucharist which is your first communion, there's confirmation, marriage, holy orders and i believe that is all, not sure! hope it helped!
