Letter to the Bishop by Confirmation Students

The letters can follow this general outline:

Greeting:


Dear Bishop Garcia,

Paragraph 1:

Introduce yourself by saying something about who you are, your family, your parish, etc.

Paragraph 2: 

 Ask permission to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.  Give the reasons why you'd like to receive it.

Paragraph 3:

 Explain how you have prepared to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. (You can include attending catechism classes; volunteer work for the Community, the Parish, or others; If you have done novenas or gone on pilgrimages in preparation, write about your experiences.  Be truthful.)

Paragraph 4:

Talk about the difficulties that teens or others face in today's world.  How can you help?  How do you plan to carry out your service for God and others with the help of the Holy Spirit?

Closing:

Sincerely,

(your name handwritten)


Note:
This should be a personal reflection written by the Confirmation student expressing their own personal faith journey.  Your story and letter will  be unique to you.  

Please submit your letters for Bishop Danny/Fr. Joey to Catechist Heather by May 1st, 2022.
