Confirmation for People Entering the Church

[BonnieBj]

Our missalette has a number of the rites and ceremonies for the people entering the Church, such as the Rite of Sending. My husband is one of these. But I cannot find the confirmation rite and whatever else is supplemental to the Mass on Holy Saturday. Can anyone provide me with the texts?

The actual Rite of Confirmation belongs to the Bishop and so rubrics are found in the Ceremonial of Bishops. The Rite of Christian Initiation has the outline of where the Rite of Confirmation is inserted within the Easter Vigil. I’m not sure if the Rite of Confirmation is found in the Book of Rites?

My St. Joseph Sunday Missal has the Confirmation rite as used on Easter Vigil, as well as Baptism and reception into full communion.

Thanks Illini, I’ll look in my Sunday Missal.
