St. Andrew the Apostle
Faith Formation
Confirmation 2020-2021
Pope Francis
“Become the person that God has created you to be
And you will set the world on FIRE!”
— St. Catherine of Sienna
Parents are the primary catechist, St. Andrew is here to
support you on this journey!
It is particularly important for us to teach our children
that Sacraments are so much more than a
they are God’s way of
ceremony to prepare for;
reaching down to us and offering us a
lifelong gift—a gift of grace that gives us a glimpse
of heaven and a taste of eternity right here on Earth.
Los padres son el catequista principal, San Andrés está
aquí para apoyarlo en este viaje!
Es particularmente importante para nosotros enseñar a
los niños que los sacramentos son mucho más
son la forma
que una ceremonia para prepararse;
en que Dios nos alcanza y nos ofrece un
regalo de toda la vida, un regalo de gracia que
nos permite vislumbrar el cielo y probar la eternidad.*

*HORARIO Y DÍA ASIGNADO PARA SER
ANUNCIADOS LO ANTES POSIBLE.SAINT REPORT
All candidates must select a Saint name, this name serves as your Confirmation name. It is
completely acceptable to use your given name if it is the name of a Saint of our Church.
REMEMBER too – this Saint is someone that you aspire to emulate in the way that you live
out your own life. You then must write a report, at least one page long, on your chosen
Saint.
Designate the specific person (ex., Male: St. John Paul II, Female: St. Monica).
The name chosen must be a Blessed or canonized a Roman Catholic saint. A canonized Catholic Saint is a man or a
woman who has displayed heroic virtue and has been recognized by the Church. During Confirmation preparation
time, candidates should research their baptismal name or a new Saint's name they have chosen. After you have
selected the Saint you would like to be named after (and who will continue to pray for you), type a one-page
report about the Saint's life!
Saint Report:
As we go through our sacramental preparation for Confirmation, we want to remember that the
saints chosen are picked because they are a person that we want to be like, as well as someone who
can pray for us from heaven. Through the process of canonization, when someone is declared by
the Church to be a saint, the Church is proclaiming that this member of the faithful practiced heroic
virtue during their life on earth, 'the Church recognizes the power of the Spirit of holiness within
her and sustains the hope of believers by proposing the saints to them as models and
intercessors' (CCC 828).
It is important to remember that as members of the Church, we are never alone, as St. Paul said,
'We are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses' ( Hebrews 12:1). These witnesses are the saints
who continually intercede for us (CCC 956); in choosing a Confirmation saint, we are choosing a
special friend to intercede for us in heaven and after whom we can model our lives while here on
earth. (Taken from Life Teen, “Why do Catholics choose Confirmation Saints? ”)
Include the following topics in your report – !!!REPORT MUST BE TYPED!!!
Who is the saint? (When and where did he or she live, family life, job, etc.)
What have you learned about this Saint through your research?
Why did you select this Saint to represent your faith journey?
How is this person a good role model for you to follow as a confirmed Catholic?
Include the resources from which you obtained your information (web site, book, etc.)
– Check your Hero of the Week in your Confirmation book first as a starting point.INFORME DE SU SANTO DE CONFIRMACION
Todos los candidatos deben seleccionar un santo y escribir un informe, al
menos una página, sobre el Santo elegido.
Designe a la persona específica (e, g., Hombre: San Juan Pablo II, Mujer: Santa Mónica).
El nombre elegido debe ser bendecido o canonizado por un santo católico. Un santo cristiano canonizado es un
hombre o una mujer que ha mostrado una virtud heroica y ha sido reconocido por la Iglesia. Durante el tiempo de
preparación de la Confirmación, los candidatos deben investigar su nombre bautismal o el nombre de un nuevo
Santo que hayan elegido. Después de haber seleccionado al Santo del que le gustaría ser nombrado (y que
continuará orando por usted), escriba un informe de una página sobre la vida del Santo.
Informe:
A medida que avanzamos en nuestra preparación sacramental para la Confirmación, los santos de Confirmación
son elegidos para ser la persona que queremos ser, así como alguien que puede orar por nosotros desde el cielo.
A través del proceso de canonización, cuando la Iglesia declara a alguien como un santo, la Iglesia proclama que
este miembro de los fieles practicó la virtud heroica durante su vida en la tierra, "la Iglesia reconoce el poder del
Espíritu de santidad dentro de ella y sostiene la esperanza de los creyentes al proponerles a los santos como
modelos e intercesores '(CCC 828).
Es importante recordar que como miembros de la Iglesia, nunca estamos solos, como dijo san Pablo: "Estamos
rodeados de una gran nube de testigos" (Hebreos 12: 1). Estos testigos son los santos que continuamente
interceden por nosotros (CCC 956); al elegir un santo de confirmación, estamos eligiendo un amigo especial para
interceder por nosotros en el cielo y después de quién podemos modelar nuestras vidas mientras estamos aquí
en la tierra. (Tomado de Life Teen, "¿Por qué los católicos eligen a Confirmation Saints?").
Incluya los siguientes temas en su informe: ¡DEBE SER ESCRITO POR COMPUTADORA!
• ¿Quién es el santo? (Cuándo y dónde vivió, vida familiar, trabajo, etc.)
• ¿Qué has aprendido sobre este santo a través de tu investigación?
• ¿Por qué seleccionaste a este Santo para representar tu viaje de fe?
• ¿Cómo es esta persona un buen modelo para seguir como un católico confirmado?
•Incluya los recursos de los cuales obtuvo su información (sitio web, libro, etc.)

Confirmación como punto de partida.LETTER TO OUR PASTOR

CONFIRMATION SPONSOR FORM
What is a Sponsor?
A sponsor is a person who encourages and assists a candidate to embrace and actively practice the
Catholic faith both before and after Confirmation. The sponsor also presents the candidate to the
Bishop (or his delegate) at the celebration of Confirmation.
Who Can be a Sponsor?
Being a sponsor is not just an honor. The sponsor must be an active, practicing Catholic who can be a
role model for the candidate. Ideally, you should choose one of your godparents from Baptism,
provided he or she meets the guidelines below. If it is not possible to choose a godparent as your
sponsor (e.g. they are deceased, live too far away, or are no longer a practicing Catholic), then you
might ask someone else whom you see as an example of a committed, practicing Catholic. This could
be a grandparent, aunt or uncle, other relative, family friend, parent of one of your friends, a teacher.
What qualifies someone to be a Confirmation Sponsor?
Select only ONE person.
MUST be a Catholic who is at least sixteen years old.
Have received the Sacrament of Confirmation.
Be a person who leads “a life of faith in keeping with the function to be taken on.”
NOT one of the parents of the candidate.
A fully initiated Catholic who is faithful to Christ and his Church.
A Prayer to Help You Choose Your Sponsor
Holy Spirit, helper and guide, give me wisdom as I choose my Confirmation sponsor.
Help me to choose a person of prayer who will teach me also to be a person of prayer
who will support me in difficult times, who will guide me to make good choices,
and who will challenge me when I do not.
Help me to choose someone who will love me and teach me to love Jesus. Thank you
for giving me a community of people around me to support and guide me as I take
this important step in becoming more fully a member of your Church.
AmenFORMULARIO DE PATROCINADOR DE CONFIRMACIÓN
¿Qué es una Madrina o Padrino?
Un patrocinador es una persona que alienta y asiste a un candidato a abrazar y practicar
activamente la fe católica tanto antes como después de la Confirmación. El patrocinador
también presenta el candidato al Obispo (o su delegado) en la celebración de la Confirmación.
¿Quién puede ser una Madrina o Padrino?
Ser patrocinador no es solo un honor. El patrocinador debe ser un católico activo y practicante
que puede ser un modelo que seguir para el candidato. Idealmente, debe elegir uno de sus
padrinos del bautismo, siempre que cumpla con las pautas anteriores. Si no es posible elegir un
padrino como su padrino (por ejemplo, han fallecido, viven demasiado lejos o ya no son un
católico practicante), entonces puede pedirle a otra persona que vea como un ejemplo de un
católico comprometido y practicante. Esto podría ser un abuelo, tía o tío, otro pariente, familia
amigo, padre de uno de tus amigos, un maestro.
¿Qué califica a alguien para ser mi Madrina/Padrino?
1. Seleccione solo UNA persona.
2. Ser Católico que tenga al menos dieciséis años.

Una oración para ayudarlo a elegir su patrocinador
Espíritu Santo, ayudante y guía, dame sabiduría mientras elijo mi patrocinador de
Confirmación. Ayúdame a elegir una persona de oración que también me enseñe a ser una
persona de oración que me apoyará en tiempos difíciles, que me guiará a tomar buenas
decisiones y que me desafiará cuando no lo haga.
Ayúdame a elegir a alguien que me ame y me enseñe a amar a Jesús. Gracias por brindarme
una comunidad de personas a mi alrededor para que me apoye y me guíe mientras doy este
importante paso para ser más plenamente miembro de tu Iglesia.

DEPENDIENTE DE SU CLASE EN PERSONA EN MARZO*SERVICE PROJECT LOG for: ___________________________________
(Name of Confirmation Candidate)
Being of service to others is a core component of the Gospel message for all Catholics. Preparation for Confirmation
requires service to others so that candidates can be introduced to, and immersed into, Christian service as a normal way of
a Catholic life.
St. Andrew the Apostle requires all students preparing for Confirmation to participate in a minimum of 4 service
projects during your Confirmation formation year (approx. 20 hours of service in total). Your service will need to be record-
ed and your statement of hours signed off by the person for whom you performed the service. Students are required to
maintain a log of what they did, who they did it for, and the number of hours of each service opportunity. A reflection (see
reverse side of this form) on this service will be completed by each Candidate – due at the April 24, 2021 Retreat! (More
service efforts may be necessary in order to meet the 20 total hour expectation. Attach additional sheet, if necessary.)
Service projects are to be done without being paid/compensated in any way and generally for non-family members.
Service projects must be chosen in consultation with parents and sponsors and then supervised (directly or indirectly) in
such a way that the safety of the child is always assured.

__________________________TESTING REQUIREMENT
Each Confirmation Candidate will be required to pass both a written test and oral interview
before being recognized as prepared to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation! The information
listed below provides the basic faith knowledge that each Candidate should know in order to
pass these tests. The written test will be distributed during a regularly scheduled class period
with ample warning to prepare. The interviews will be conducted by our priests or deacons
during regular class periods near the end of the season with notice.
CONFIRMATION INTERVIEW PREPARATION
NOTE: You may be asked some or all of these questions. Not everyone will necessarily be asked the same things. It’s
important that you take some time between now and the interview to think about how you will respond. There are
no right or wrong answers, but you should be able to give a thoughtful response to each question.
•Tell me something about yourself. What gives you enjoyment in life?
•Confession is sometimes a scary Sacrament. Do you feel comfortable going to Confession?
•Tell me what you know about the Sacrament of Confirmation. What does it do for you?
•How will your life be different as a full member of the Church?
•Which Gift of the Holy Spirit do you find most interesting or appealing and why?
•Confirmation is the end of attending Faith Formation classes, but the beginning of learning more about your
faith. How will you continue to deepen the knowledge of your faith?
•What are some things you like about being Catholic? Are there things about the Church that you find
challenging or difficult?
•How will you live out your faith as a confirmed, adult member of the Church? What talents or gifts has God
given you that will help to build His kingdom?
•Who has served as a Catholic role model for you? What about that person has impacted and/or inspired you?
•Which of the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit do you possess the most of? Which Gift do you need the most of?
CONFIRMATION WRITTEN EXAM PREPARATION
The written exam will cover basic information about our Catholic faith that as a person
about to receive Confirmation you MUST know. Fr. Maciej will be presenting you to the
Bishop at your Confirmation as prepared, if you cannot answer these basic things about
our faith, you may not be ready to be Confirmed. Please don’t hesitate to ask your
catechist, our priests, Mary or Annmarie if you have ANY questions about this material.
We are here to journey along side you - there is NO such thing as a bad question!!

Holy Spirit; Fruits of the Holy Spirit; Good Friday; Grace; salvation; Real Presence;
