Who is the Holy Spirit? How does the Spirit work in our lives and in the life of the Church? Why is it so important that we know and love him?
For many, the Holy Spirit can be the most difficult Person of the Trinity to think about, making it harder to understand the Holy Spirit’s role in our lives. Our first session gives a fresh and inviting perspective about this often neglected and misunderstood Person of the Trinity.
In this session we will discuss the power of the Holy Spirit throughout the Bible, looking in particular at the descent of the Holy Spirit at Jesus’s Baptism. We will explore misconceptions about the Sacrament of Confirmation, and help teens understand the plan of the Holy Spirit in their lives.
In this session we will discuss the very purpose of the Sacrament of Confirmation: the Holy Spirit moving the Church to mission. We will explore Jesus’s mission following his Baptism when the Holy Spirit descended on him, as well as the story of Pentecost and the mission of the Church.
In this session, we’ll see how the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit are the evidence of the grace of the Sacrament of Confirmation perfecting our Baptism, deepening our relationship with the Blessed Trinity, strengthening our bond with the Church, and empowering us to spread the Gospel.
