Paraclete
A title for the Holy Spirit. It means someone who pleads before a judge on behalf of someone else. Jesus Himself used this title in speaking about the Holy Spirit. Saint Paul the Apostle said that the Spirit would plead for us before God, and help us to pray.
patron saints
The saints after whom we are named at Baptism and at Confirmation. These saints pray for us in a special way and help us to reach Heaven. We should learn about our patron saints and try to love God as they did.
sign of Confirmation
The bishop (or in some cases a priest) imposes his hand on the head of the person and anoints him with chrism while saying: "Be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit." The message is that of spiritual strength and power in the Holy Spirit.
witness
Someone who can give testimony about someone else. In Christian vocabulary a witness is someone who gives testimony about Jesus to others. We witness to Jesus by good example, holy lives, or even by martyrdom.
