Indicate yes or no. If yes, include name of church you attend.
Are you a college student? If so, what college or university do you attend? What is your major field of study? If employed, who are you employed by and what is your primary job?
Do you have a preference of someone you wish to sponsor you?
In order to join the Catholic Church and receive the Sacraments of Initiation, the Church requires you to have a sponsor to ‘walk’ with you through your journey, help answer your questions, support you in the Rites, and help prepare you to become Catholic. You may choose your own Sponsor or we can match you with a person of similar interests, age, and background. *In order to be a Sponsor/Godparent, the person cannot be directly related to you. This includes spouses or future spouses, parents and children. Sponsors must have received all their Sacraments of Initiation, be an active and contributing member at a parish, and living as a practicing Catholic as the Church teaches us in the precepts. We require a Letter of Good Standing from their parish priest if they are not a member of Holy Spirit Catholic Church.
There is a $20 registration fee to cover cost of materials. This fee will need to be paid before the end of November.
