Fifty Truths Every Catholic Teen Should Know

"While knowing and loving the Lord is most important, knowing the content and meaning of what He has revealed and the implications of that revelation in the Christian life are also necessities in the sacramental preparation process. To that end, I have developed a list of fifty questions that I think all Confirmandi (those preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation) should be able to answer. This booklet contains those questions and shows you the sources where the answers to the questions can be found.

Thank you for putting forth the time and effort to prepare yourself to be confirmed. It is an important step on your ongoing journey as a disciple of the Lord Jesus; may He strengthen you and sustain you in this process. May the Holy Spirit, which I will call down upon you at the celebration of your Confirmation, enliven your efforts and ready your heart to receive the gift that God offers."
