Choosing a Sponsor
Our Catechism suggests that confirmands should choose a spiritual mentor to help them prepare for Confirmation. It is appropriate for that sponsor to be one of the baptismal godparents to emphasize Confirmation as part of sacraments of Initiation and connected to Baptism. If that is not possible, a sponsor may be chosen who is a confirmed, active Catholic over the age of 16 who is free from any impediment of law to fulfill their role as sponsor and not the parent of the candidate. Please consider carefully who can help bring you closer to Christ as you prepare for Confirmation! Please complete the Confirmation Sponsor Information form by
10/1/2023.
Christian Name
Our diocesan policy states:
Candidates whose given/baptism name is not Christian should choose a Confirmation name from the names of canonized saints. Other candidates may choose a Confirmation name. Whether they keep their baptism name or choose a confirmation name, the candidates should have a good knowledge of their patron saint (even if they have chosen the name to honor a relative or friend).
Conversations with Sponsors
As part of your preparation, we are asking you to have at least three 30 minute conversations using the Chosen Sponsor Guide that you received earlier this year. While we are not going to track them, these opportunities to share about our faith and tradition are crucial to our growth as disciples. If you did not receive your book, please
contact our office
to arrange to pick it up!
