Everyone who wishes to receive the sacrament of Confirmation in the Concord Carlisle Catholic Collaborative, scheduled for the spring of 2024, should complete this online form to provide us the information we need about your Confirmation sponsor. Then you may inform us if you are choosing to take a Confirmation name.

At the end, you will indicate your choice about attending a Confirmation retreat.

Confirmation Sponsor Information
We intend to reach out and communicate with all the Confirmation sponsors.

Requirements for Confirmation Sponsors:

The Code of Canon Law (Church Law) specifies the requirements for serving as a sponsor at Confirmation (Canon 893) are the same as those for godparents at Baptism (Canon 874): a sponsor may not be the parent of the person being confirmed, a sponsor must be at least 16 years old, a sponsor must be fully initiated (Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist) in the Catholic church, a sponsor should live a life of active faith in the Catholic Church, and if married a sponsor needs to be in valid Catholic marriage.

It is preferred that a baptismal Godparent will be the Confirmation sponsor, although ultimately the choice of sponsor is that of the candidate, who may choose someone who meets the qualifications above.

While it is preferable that sponsors attend the Confirmation liturgy, it is possible to have a “proxy” stand in for the absentee sponsor (this "proxy" could be a parent). This has always been the case, but has been more common since the pandemic.
