Receive a Sponsor Letter for Baptism or Confirmation

The Church takes very seriously the important role of being a sponsor for the Sacraments of Initiation. A sponsor must be someone who can represent the Church in the continuing faith formation of those entrusted to their care. Choosing a sponsor should be based on the person’s dedication to the Faith and regular practice thereof. For those seeking letters of eligibility as Sacramental Sponsors, you must be a registered parishioner here at St. Aloysius for a minimum of three (3) months; 16 years or older; a fully initiated member of the Catholic Church (Sacraments of Baptism, Communion and Confirmation); and, if married, the marriage was performed by a Catholic Priest or Deacon in a Catholic Church. We cannot grant certificates to anyone who does not meet these important criteria and we are very grateful for your understanding.
