Confirmation: A Parish Celebration

by Timothy Fitzgerald

Much is written about catechesis for Confirmation. For over fifteen years, parish ministers have used A Parish Celebration to guide them through the process of preparing a worthy liturgy to culminate that process. This revised edition contains the same thorough review of the Rite of Confirmation, the same sound liturgical principle and the same good pastoral sense. In addition, it includes insights and wisdom about Confirmation as a sacrament of initiation gained from the many changes our Church has gone through in implementing the catechumenate. Pastors, liturgy directors, directors of religious education, catechists who work with those preparing for Confirmation, and liturgical musicians will find this book invaluable in planning the infrequent but vitally important Confirmation liturgy.
