THE SACRAMENT OF CONFIRMATION

Baptism, the Eucharist, and together constitute the "sacraments of Christian initiation," whose unity must be safeguarded. It must be explained to the faithful that the reception of is necessary for the completion of baptismal grace.  For "by , [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. - CCC 1285
