Confirmation April 19, 2022
"When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them ability."
Acts of the Apostles 2:1-4

Dear Parents and Confirmandi,

Confirmation is just around the corner and with that comes the promise of paperwork. This form has been created to streamline information required for Confirmation.  Please fill out the form as completely and accurately as you can. I ask that all forms be completed by February 11th.

Teens are required to write a short paragraph on why they chose their sponsor and why they chose their Confirmation name and have that to me by February 11, 2022. This can submitted on the Google Classroom Assignment labeled "Confirmation Name and Sponsor"

Confirmation Names:
To reinforce the connections between Baptism and Confirmation, candidates may choose to be confirmed with their baptismal name. The act of reaffirming the name given them at Baptism is a way for them to confirm their baptismal promises.  Candidates who decide to take a new Confirmation name should be encouraged to do so thoughtfully and seriously. The name might reflect a Christian ideal or goal or value they wish to strive for. Perhaps they wish to honor a saint whose holiness or charitable works have inspired them.

Confirmation Sponsors:
The requirements for sponsors are listed below.  Sometimes Godparents are chosen to be Confirmation Sponsors, but this is not a requirement.  You should chose someone you feel will best help you in your faith journey as an adult.  

Sponsor Requirements:
Church law states that sponsors must be at least 16 years of age.
He or she must be a Confirmed Catholic and be living the Catholic faith.
The sponsor cannot be a parent of the candidate
It is the sponsors responsibility to provide qualifications upon request

Please complete all sections of this form.  You may email copies of Baptismal certificates to youthminister@stvirgilparish.org  Please have this form completed by Jan 1, 2022.  

In His Grace,
