REQUIREMENT FOR SPONSORS:

The Code of Canon Law establishes the following. Sponsors must:

  • Be an active Catholic: “An active Catholic is one who attends Sunday and Holy Day Masses regularly and participates in the Sacramental life of the Church.”
  • Not be a parent of the candidate.
  • The confirmation sponsor’s role is one of a mentor in the Catholic faith. He/she will present the candidate to the Bishop/Priest on the day of Confirmation, and in doing this, ensure that the candidate is fully prepared to not only receive the sacrament of Confirmation, but also live the Christian life. The sponsor should continue to support the candidate throughout their lives.
