- has received the sacraments of Baptism, First Holy Communion and Confirmation in the Catholic Church;
- participates in the Mass on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation and receives the sacraments of Eucharist and Reconciliation regularly;
- realizes that they assume a great responsibility before God and the Church in becoming a sponsor and will faithfully fulfill the obligations connected with it; and
- gives support to the candidate through prayer and by the Christian example of their daily life.
Please prayerfully consider who your child’s Confirmation sponsor should be. Then complete the following online form by December 20, 2025.
