Confirmation

Confirmation is God’s final installment in preparing us to go out and be missionary disciples for His Church. What your parents started in you in your baptism is now Confirmed by the Church.  Through the Church we all receive a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit to go forth to spread and defend the Catholic faith. Confirmation preparation is about getting ready to accept that challenge. Come and discover with us.

With this in mind our teens are given a year to learn about what the sacrament of Confirmation is, who the Holy Spirit is, to grow in their relationship with Christ and His Church as they discern the reception of this powerful sacrament.

Sponsor Letters of Eligibility

Each Confirmation candidate is required to choose a Confirmation sponsor. This person will stand with them as a Catholic witness on the day of their Confirmation. There are several requirements for being a Confirmation sponsor. Please share this Letter of Eligibility | Carta de Eligibilidad with the person chosen to be the sponsor. It is the sponsor’s responsibility to complete the letter and have it signed and sealed at their home Parish. The completed letters are then returned to St Timothy Catholic Church for our sacramental records.
