Online Confirmation Sponsor Class
Should I Be A Confirmation Sponsor?
To be a Confirmation sponsor is both an honor and a responsibility. For this reason, you must be adequately prepared. While most formation courses are geared to prepare students for the grace-filled opportunity and responsibility that comes with receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation, few programs also prepare Confirmation sponsors for the awesome responsibility of serving as a Confirmation sponsor. Just as being a godparent is both an honor and a responsibility, so too serving as a Confirmation sponsor requires preparation.
CatechismClass.com is pleased to have the support of the hierarchy of the Catholic Church and offers its programs in full conformity with the Magisterium of the Church.
Can I Be A Confirmation Sponsor?
To be a sponsor, you must be a confirmed and practicing Catholic. You also must be committed to the Church's teachings and participate in the life of the Church (i.e. going to Mass weekly, going to Confession often, praying daily, upholding the sacredness of human life from conception to natural death, and all other duties that a Catholic must observe). You also generally must take a Confirmation Sponsor Class.
