Your Child's Confirmation will help you "sort things through" while you and your child prepare for the sacrament. Each chapter offers questions for reflection or discussion and passages from the liturgy of the sacrament, Scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church for prayerful meditation. This sacramental preparation resource concludes with a look at the Confirmation rite itself.
