Confirmation 23 May 2021 at 3pm (Pentecost) at St Joseph's, Monseigneur  Marsset officiated. My regret was the number of family members who could be present had to be greatly reduced again this year due to COVID (Fr Aidan Troy, C.P.; Pastor).  Marymount School Confirmations, by the Bishop of Nanterre, took place at St Jacques in Neuilly on Thursday 27May at 6:30p.m.
Last year Confirmation 2020 on Oct 11th at 3pm with Bishop Denis Jachiet  was a beautiful ceremony.

Some photos: Confirmation Pentecost Sunday 9 June 2019 for both CCD and Marymount School Candidates: Monseigneur Xavier Rambaud, Episcopal Vicar of Paris officiated .




Confirmation is the strengthening of the new life of Baptism.   As such it brings an increase and deepening of baptismal grace.  St Ambrose, speaking to the newly confirmed explains:   "Recall then that you have received the spiritual seal, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of right judgment and courage, the spirit of knowledge and reverence, the spirit of holy fear in God's presence. Guard what you have received. God the Father has marked you with his sign; Christ the Lord has confirmed you and has placed his pledge, the Spirit, in your hearts" (St. Ambrose, De myst. 7, 42: PL 16, 402-403).
