As mentioned in the previous announcement the Sacrament of Confirmation for St. Anthony Parish will be on September 9th (Wednesday) at 7pm.
At this point we will be preparing for reception of the Sacrament.
All those being confirmed will need a sponsor whom I am sure is already chosen. Sponsors need to be confirmed practicing Catholics. What that means is that they have to be confirmed and they are regularly attending Mass. If they are married, they are married in the Church. If there are any issues with these requirements please feel free to let me know.
Confirmation students are invited to take a Confirmation name. The name can be of a saint or of a virtue.
For example some of the possibilities just for the name Anthony for St Anthony: Anthony, Antonio, Antonia, Anthos, Antonius, Anton, Antoine, Antoinette, Antonello, Andon.
Virtue could be any virtue in any language for example Charity, Caridad, Caridade, etc.
Please choose the confirmation name carefully because it will have special significance for you throughout your life. Give the name thought in light of who your favorite saint may be. Any saint's name can be chosen but please choose wisely.
