In the Catholic Church, this is the second sacrament. The Sacrament of Confirmation allows you to consciously make the same promises your parents made for you when you were baptized. (Notice that the administration of the sacraments for adults still hold the same meaning since one only reaches spiritual adulthood with the Sacrament of Confirmation.) The ritual itself will go something like this: Your hair should be brushed back from your forehead. When the time comes, you should be kneeling in front of the Bishop. Your Sponsor will be standing behind you with his or her hand on your right shoulder. The Bishop will anoint you making the sign of the Cross on your forehead with Holy Chrism. While the Bishop is anointing your forehead he says: "I sign thee with the sign of the cross, and I con-firm thee with the chrism of salvation, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Then, the Bishop will give you a little slap on the cheek and say: "Peace be with you". This little slap on the cheek is to remind you that you should be ready to suffer for your Faith. A Priest will wipe your forehead.
