SPONSORS
A sponsor for Confirmation is a public role in the Church. Before selecting a sponsor, the Confirmation candidate and their parents should reflect on whether the person you are considering meets the requirements. Family members sometimes feel compelled to ask someone because of tradition or other obligations, unaware that the proposed sponsor no longer practices the Catholic faith.
Remember the issue here for a person who is taking a public role in the Church is not simply whether the sponsor is a good-living person with high values. That is presumed. No, it is much more. Does the sponsor you are considering practice the Catholic faith in accordance with these basic requirements:
In the event that the person you are considering to be the sponsor does not fufill these requirements, you could possibly discuss this matter with them. An invitation to be a sponsor can be a "graced moment," inviting a family member or friend to turn again to Jesus Christ through the Catholic Church.
CONFIRMATION SPONSOR ELIGIBILITY FORMS ARE DUE TO ST. BEDE'S OFFICE OF RELIGIOUS EDUCATION BY DECEMBER 16, 2020
