What Is a Catholic Confirmation Letter?
A Catholic Confirmation Letter is a request by a person undergoing the Confirmation process written to a friend, family member, or mentor within the Catholic Church on their behalf. This letter also acts as a request that the individual addressed be present at the person's confirmation ceremony.
Likewise, a Catholic Confirmation Letter can be written by a confirmandee's loved one or religious mentor, to encourage them to continue their process of receiving the Sacrament.
