Sacrament of Confirmation      The Sacrament of Confirmation is.... the sacrament   of initation, the completion of the baptismal grace, enriched with a special strength of Holy Spirit,  a sacrament that makes the grace of the Pentecost in the church, and the special out pouring of the holy spirit.  Confirmation can help us accept the call of God and work with others to build a better world for everyone. These are the steps of being confirmed: You stand or kneel before the bishop your sponcer lays one hand on your shoulder and speaks your confirmation name The bishop anoints you by using oil (they use a special oil called Chrism) to make a cross on your forehead, while saying your confirmation name and "Be sealed with the gift of the holy spirit" You respond "Amen" The bishop says "peace be with you" You respond "and with your spirit"

Heaven       Heaven is where good people go after they die. There is no pain or sin in heaven. There are lots of  angels and two thrones for God and Jesus. Christians believe in the blessedness of heaven realized in the possession of God. In the bible we can describe heaven as: The crown of life (James 1:12) As the kingdom (Matthew 25:34) As the eternal glory of God (1 Peter 5:10)  We should practice this sacrament because we will not be able to go to heaven without it. Sin is not allowed in heaven. In heaven the blessed will be: Will be with God (Revelation 21:3) Will be in the house of the father where there are many dwelling places (John 14:2), heirs to God, heirs with Christ( Romans 8:17) will reign forever and ever; illuminated by God ( Revelation 22:3-5)
