  Choosing a Sponsor
  All Confirmandi are to choose a sponsor. This is similar to choosing a godparent at Baptism. This person is someone who will walk on this faith journey with them. They should be a great example of what it means to be a Catholic.
  
  To be permitted to take on the function of sponsor a person must:
  - Be Catholic.
  - Be at least 16 years old.
  - Have received the Sacrament of Confirmation.
  - Lives a life of faith according to the teachings of the Catholic Church.
  - Not bound by any canonical penalty legitimately imposed or declared. (If married, must be married in the church)
  - Not be the father or mother.
  SPONSOR FORM
  Choosing a Confirmation Saint Name
  In Confirmation, we receive the power to make a stand for Christ and his Church, as well as special gifts to help us serve God and the Church in particular ways. All these graces help us shift our focus from interior formation (which began at Baptism) to exterior proclamation, giving us courage to witness to the Faith in our words and actions. Confirmation is sometimes called “the sacraments of the martyrs” because the word martyr comes from the Greek word meaning “witness.” They witnessed for the truth of the gospel-no matter what the cost. All martyrs are Saints. But not all saints were martyrs.
  We choose a Confirmation saint (like we choose a Confirmation sponsor) not out of due diligence to the “rule,” but rather because we realize how unfortunate it would be to travel alone. We recognize how important it is to know your Confirmation saint not only by name, but also by story. The saints have so much to teach us about this journey. Choose a Saint or Blessed who really speaks to you. Someone you hope to emulate.
  
  Saint Report
  After you have chosen a Saint. Then you will need to do a Saint report. This will help you get to know your Saint more and give you a more meaningful reason as to why you are choosing this particular Saint.

  Letter to Bishop
  Each year Bishop Hying asks the Confirmation candidates to write a letter. They are an opportunity for him to get to know a little about every teen in our Diocese receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation. Please take your time with these. He reads each and every one. These should at least be 2 - 3 paragraphs long. The letters will be proofread. The letter must be typed and not folded up. You can either email it to me or drop it off at the St. Bernard Office. Please do not write the letter in an email. You can email it as a PDF, Google Docs, Word Document, or something similar.
