The Sacrament of Confirmation
El Sacramento de Confirmación 

Come Holy Spirit!  ~ ¡Ven, Espíritu Santo!

For "by the sacrament of Confirmation, [the baptized] are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit. Hence they are, as true witnesses of Christ, more strictly obliged to spread and defend the faith by word and deed."

 

En efecto, a los bautizados "el sacramento de la Confirmación los une más íntimamente a la Iglesia y los enriquece con una fortaleza especial del Espíritu Santo. De esta forma quedan obligados aún más, como auténticos testigos de Cristo, a extender y defender la fe con sus palabras y sus obras" (LG 11; cf Ritual de la Confirmación, Prenotandos 2)
