I started masturbating when I was 10 years old. When I was 11, I was confirmed. I did not know back then that masturbation is a mortal sin. So my question is, Was my confirmation valid? Did I receive the graces that came with the celebration of that beautiful sacrament? If the not, what am I going to do to receive those graces?
 
Hi,

Your Confirmation would have been valid even if you were guilty of the sin of masturbation. But since you didn’t know it was a sin, you didn’t sin and you also received all the graces of Confirmation besides.
