3 March, 2017 Dear Parents, Welcome to the St. Gabriel Confirmation program. Your son/daughter will soon begin another step in his/her faith journey. In this beautiful sacrament, confirmands are sealed with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. You have been a great influence in your child s religious education. We know that you will continue to support him/her in preparation for the sacrament of Confirmation. To be eligible for Confirmation, students must have completed sixth, seventh and eighth grade in religious education or Catholic school before receiving the sacrament in ninth grade in PARENT MEETINGS As a parent of a Confirmation student you are REQUIRED to attend ONE of the following meetings. Please RSVP online at SUNDAY, APRIL 23, at 6:30 pm, in the Parish Center Cafeteria (school); or, MONDAY, APRIL 24, at 7:00 pm, in the Parish Center Cafeteria (school); or, THURSDAY, APRIL 27, at 7:00 pm, in the Ministry Center, Room C. REGISTRATION AND FEE GUIDELINES This year, registration and fee payment may be made online. The $80 fee covers the cost of materials and the retreat. You will find the registration form and payment module at If you do not have access to a computer, please call me at , ext. 219, and I will mail you a registration form and packet. If you have a financial hardship, please contact me before registering. The form will ask you to provide: 1. Student s name, address, school name, birthdate and parent information. 2. Confirmation name (this may be your son/daughter s baptismal name or the name of a saint). One name is sufficient (for example: Mary or John, not Mary Elizabeth Smith). 3. You must provide a Baptismal certificate for your child if he/she was not baptized at St. Gabriel. 4. If your child was baptized at another church you must also provide the name and address of the church. Most churches do not provide this information on their certificates.
4 SPONSORS 5. If your child was baptized at St. Gabriel please give us the baptismal date; a certificate is not required. 6. Provide name of SPONSOR with an AND address. ** ** SPONSOR: A baptized, confirmed and mature practicing Catholic who is willing to share his/her faith. The sponsor may be a relative or friend but NOT the confirmand s parent. Sponsors are required to obtain a letter in good standing from their church (demonstrating that they are practicing Catholics). Sponsors in high school or college do NOT need to obtain a letter in good standing. I will send a letter to the sponsor outlining the Confirmation program and their responsibilities as a sponsor as soon as I receive your registration form. Please have a prayerful discussion with your son/daughter as to who he/she plans to ask to be his/her sponsor. Failure to register and provide all required info by the parent meeting assumes that your child will NOT be confirmed this year. CONFIRMATION PACKET BEFORE you complete your registration form and pay the Confirmation fee, please access the CONFIRMATION PACKET at www. stgabrielchurch.org/confirmation. It contains: 1. Confirmation Calendar 2. Confirmation Learning Targets 3. Service Hour form 4. Service Hour Suggestions 5. Clothing Drive Suggestions for the clothing drive to be held December 1 st and 2 nd 6.

8 ST. GABRIEL CHURCH FAITH DEVELOPMENT CENTER 3016 PROVIDENCE ROAD CHARLOTTE, NC Dear Confirmation Sponsor, Congratulations and welcome to the confirmation program at St. Gabriel. What a great honor for you to share your faith journey with your confirmand! A sponsor is defined as a friend for the journey, one who attempts to put one s own search for God, with all the moments of pain, joy, hope and despair, at the disposal of those who want to join the search but need help. Through your close relationship with the confirmand and by your faith, by your active membership in the Catholic Church and your frequent reception of the sacraments, you will enable your confirmand to make the CHOICE to celebrate the Sacrament of Confirmation. In order to fulfill your obligation as a sponsor, you are asked to do the following: 1. To meet with the confirmand during the confirmation process to share and support the confirmand s journey; 2. To pray for the young person you have been asked to sponsor; and, 3. To write a personal letter to your confirmand expressing how you feel your faith has influenced your life and the hopes you have for the confirmand. Please mail your personal letter to the confirmand to the attention of Trish Stewart, at St. Gabriel Church (address above) by no later than Friday, December 1, Please do not mail your letter to the confirmand. Please write the full name of your confirmand on the back of the envelope. Write your name and address on the front upper left hand corner of the envelope. Under your name, in the return address, write Sponsor. Please see sample envelope on the following page. 4. You must receive a Letter in Good Standing from your church. This letter is verification that you are a practicing Catholic at your parish. Be sure to include the name of the person you are sponsoring. Please mail your Letter in Good Standing to St. Gabriel Church, c/o Trish Stewart, 3016 Providence Rd., Charlotte, NC 28211, by no later than Friday, December 1, The Letter in Good Standing is to be mailed separately from your letter to the confirmand. Please write Letter of Good Standing under your name in the return address. 5. To participate in the January, 2018 Confirmation Ceremony and Rehearsal.
9 As you can see, the role of sponsor is not simply an honor to bestow on any one but rather a rare opportunity to have someone share his/her faith with the confirmand. It can and should be a wonderful faith filled growth experience for both you and your confirmand. If you should have any questions, please feel free to call me at the Faith Development Center at x219 or me at: tstewart@stgabrielchurch.org.
