Being
a sponsor for a Confirmand is not a one-day commitment. It is a lifetime
commitment. It is not an honorary title. A sponsor models being a
person of faith in church, at home, in the community, and at work or
school. It is a person who is willing to listen and be present during
life's highs and lows. A sponsor is a person who affirms and challenges
with a generous love and mercy. Who can be that person for
you?
Is that person one of
your godparents who already has an invested interest in your life? If so,
the Church encourages you to have a godparent be your sponsor to show the close
connection between the sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation. If not, prayerfully
consider who would be the right person for your Confirmation Sponsor.
