CHRISMATION (CONFIRMATION)
Chrismation (confirmation) is a Sacrament and is performed immediately after Baptism, when the Priest recites the prescribed prayers and anoints the eyes, nose, mouth, ears for, the blessing of the senses; the breast and the back, for the blessing of the heart and desires; the hands for all good works; and the feet for the blessing of the going outs and coming ins.
Many do not realize that a newly baptized person receives three sacraments, Baptism and Chrismation and Holy Communion at the same time.
