Hi, Kathy —
We receive [the Holy Spirit] at Baptism,
who makes us children of the Father,
in Christ. [He] gives divine life to
the soul, and this life is the root
of all spiritual growth that comes
to us; [He] also gives us the capacity
to receive the other sacraments.
Baptism, however, does not bring
the fullness of the Spirit's gifts.
In Confirmation we receive the Holy
Spirit in power, to make us witnesses
as He is; He [the Holy Spirit] gives
us the gifts necessary to be like
Christ in His Mission.
Mary Ann
