• The candidate should not normally be younger than 10 years old.
• Each candidate must have a sponsor who is a Catholic and at least 16 years old. By custom the sponsor should be of the same sex as the candidate and not normally a parent.
• We need a photocopy of the candidate’s baptismal certificate, together with the full name, address and telephone number of the church where he/she was baptised.
• We need a short letter from a priest, not necessarily your parish priest, confirming that the candidate has been suitably instructed either by the priest or an authorised person.
• We need the name the candidate wishes to receive in Confirmation, which must be a saint’s name, and be different from the Baptismal name of the candidate. In the case of unusual Saints’ names, please tell us the source where you found the name.
