Confirmation Sponsors for Children/Teens

Registration

Sponsor registration is provided to parents once children/teens are registered for formation.

To be completed by the sponsor

A sponsor serves as a model of Christian living for the individual he/she is sponsoring. A sponsor must be a Catholic who:

• Has been baptized
• Has received Confirmation and Holy Communion in the Catholic Church.
• Is currently living a sacramental life (attending Sunday Mass, regularly going to the sacrament of Reconciliation).
• Is not living a life of habitual serious sin.
• (if applicable) Is in a marriage recognized as valid according to the Catholic Church.
• Be at least sixteen years of age.
• Not be a parent of the individual to be Confirmed.

Consider having your children's baptismal godparents take up the role of Confirmation sponsor; it provides a great connection with their baptism.
