Requirements to be a Confirmation Sponsor:
Reminder: Parents CAN NOT be sponsors to their own Confirmation student.
Directions:
Students are asked to research a saint that they wish to make their Patron Saint for Confirmation. They are asked to write a 300 word reflection (it can be longer if needed) about their Confirmation saint. They must be prepared to be able to speak on that saint when asked about him/her in class or by their sponsor.
Reflection must include:
Why they chose this saint?
What is the saint known for?
When was their saint canonized?
What gifts of the Holy Spirit do you see in that saint?
Also, include any other pertinent information about the saint.
The reflection must also include the reason why the student chose their Confirmation sponsor and how the sponsor can help them become more virtuous like their chosen saint.
Students are welcome to use any Catholic online resource or book.
These reflections will be sent to their sponsors.
Deadline May 31st
