Welcome
PRAYER
Voice of Jesus, call us back if we have strayed from you in any way. Eyes of Jesus, smile upon us with your love and encouragement. Hands of Jesus,anoint us, and give us whatever strength we need to change whatever we ought to change. Arms of Jesus, lift us up when we stumble and fall in the process, whether it be through our fault or the fault of another. Heart of Jesus, call us and draw us close to you, for our hearts were made for you and will not rest until they rest in you. Amen.

Who Can be a Sponsor?Sponsors for Baptism and ConfirmationIn both baptism and confirmation, sponsors have an important role. Along with parents, they are to present the individual to the Church for the sacrament. It is the sponsor's duty to assist the parents in raising the child in the Catholic faith. They are also to help the individual lead a Christian life. At baptism, only one sponsor is required, but there may be both a godmother and godfather if desired. At confirmation, it is preferable that one who was a baptismal sponsor also serve as confirmation sponsor. To be a baptismal or confirmation sponsor, one must be a Catholic who has received the sacraments of initiation (baptism, confirmation, Eucharist), and be a practicing Catholic of at least sixteenyears of age. Parents of the individual receiving the sacrament have their own role to play and so cannot also serve as sponsor.
