∙ 14y agoCatechumens ( Cat- a- Chew-Mens- roughly) The term is historical- like that of say crusader, and is probably not in current use- the Mass is divided into two acts, to borrow the theatrical term- the first part up to and including the Sermon ( or homily) was called the Mass of the Catechumens- the second stage- up to and including the Communion and post-communion recessional- was called the mass of the Faithful. it was a common practice of many worshipers- unless actually going to the Eucharist, to (Clear out) after the sermon- and in a way this custom has survived.

Who does the laying on of hands in the Catholic faith originate?
Actually the practice dates back to Jewish times. When a priest wished to call a special blessing he would lay is hands on the individual during his prayer of blessing. It continues today, especially in rites to call down the power of the Holy Spirit such as during the Sacrament of Confirmation.
Where did confirmation start?
Catholic AnswerIt's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. .As with all the sacraments, Confirmation was given to the Apostles by Our Blessed Lord, Himself. In the Letter to the Hebrews concerning Baptism and the Laying on of Hands, we see the first elements of Christian instruction in this Sacrament. Confirmation "completes" Baptism, as it were; it is the full coming of the Holy Spirit onto the Baptized person. The Eastern Churches call this Chrismation.
Why are confirmation candidates blessed with oil?
Confirmatin candidates were anointed at Baptism with Oil ( sacred Chrism) and now are "confirmed" with the same oil as the Holy Spirit comes to the candidate in the same way as at Baptism. The oil is a sign of anointing as a king - a king like Jesus who came to serve others and not to be served. Confirmation is call to service to God and one another.
