FAQ - Can my spouse be my sponsor for my confirmation?

Yes, your spouse can be your sponsor for your confirmation, provided they meet the typical requirements set by the Church for sponsors. These requirements generally include being a baptized and confirmed Catholic who is actively practicing their faith, being at least 16 years old, and not being the parent of the person being confirmed. It’s always a good idea to check with your local parish to ensure that your spouse meets all the necessary criteria. Having a spouse as a sponsor can be a beautiful and supportive choice for your faith journey.
