The Seven Sacraments
The seven sacraments are efficacious signs of grace, instituted by Christ and entrusted to the Church, by which divine life is dispensed to us. The visible rites by which the sacraments are celebrated signify and make present the graces proper to each sacrament. They bear fruit in those who receive them with the required dispositions.
These seven signs of Jesus that the Church dispenses convey the free gift of sanctifying grace to the recipient. The amount of grace given is infinite; The amount of grace received depends on the state of our soul. The purer our soul, the more sanctifying grace gets through.
Confirmation
Before Jesus was put to death, He promised His followers that He would send His Spirit to comfort and strengthen them. True to His promise, the Holy Spirit was poured out on them on Pentecost, forty days after His resurrection from the dead. The Sacrament of Confirmation is our own Pentecost. When we are confirmed, we receive the Holy Spirit, through the anointing with oil and the laying on of hands by the bishop or a priest appointed by him.
When we receive this sacred seal we show that we belong to God. By their anointing, the prophets, kings and priests of the Old Testament were elevated to a special position in their service of God. So it is with us when we receive the holy oil on our foreheads; we become part of the priesthood of all believers, witnesses to Christ and heirs to His throne.

AThe main goal of our Polish School of St. Stanisław Kostka in Wallington, is to instill and develop the Polish spirit in our students by learning the Polish language, history and geography of Poland and cultivating Polish traditions and customs.
By awakening students' interest in the homeland of their parents and grandparents, we spark in them love and a sense of belonging to Poland. In this way, with greater enthusiasm and joy, they assimilate the Polish language and knowledge about this country, distant to them. Our students are proud of their Polishness! The school's activity is not limited to teaching.
Our students also have the opportunity to get to know Poland and its culture and traditions through various school celebrations woven into lessons, e.g. patriotic academies, St. Andrew's Day, Nativity Clubs, Easter customs, Mother's Day etc. We employ teachers with experience acquired both in Poland and the USA to work with children and young people. We operate under the patronage of the Catholic University of Lublin st. John Paul II.
