Confirmation

Japanese: 堅信 - けんしん
Confirmation
A translation of the Latin word confirmatio. A sacrament in the Catholic Church. The baptized person is given the Holy Spirit and its grace in abundance through the laying on of hands and chrism, making them perfect Christians. In the Protestant Church, it is a ceremony that baptized people undergo to qualify to receive the Eucharist. Its interpretation and form vary considerably depending on the denomination, and it is not recognized as a sacrament. In the Orthodox Church, it is called the "Confession of the Atonement."
