Ministry Description:
Volunteers needed to sponsor youth during formation of the sacrament.
What this ministry can do for you:
This ministry is an opportunity for you to help guide a high school teen through a process that helps them prepare for their lifelong journey in the Catholic Church. As a conformation sponsor you will help your candidate answer questions which he/she may have about his/her faith life and spirituality. Hopefully this will also be a time for you to learn from your candidate through discussion and sharing, as you develop a mentoring relationship as a good role model of an active, participating Catholic Christian. As you stand with your candidate as he/she receives the sacrament, you'll know you've been a positive influence in the life of a young person who has come to a deeper committment to God.
