Confirmation is considered the Perfection of Baptism. By the Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized are more perfectly bound to the Church and are enriched with a special strength of the Holy Spirit. The anointing of the Confirmandi with the consecrated oil of chrism represents the safeguarding by the Holy Spirit of the graces conferred on the Christian at Baptism.
