Welcome to Confirmation 2026 at LK Parish

To register please read all the information carefully and fill in all the fields in the form.

Celebration Day will be held on Friday, 20 November 2026 | at 5.00 PM at Killara or 7.00 PM at Lindfield

Important information to note:

1. Eligibility

Candidates must be Baptised and be eight years of age or older (Year 3 minimum). Confirmation is made before Reconciliation and First Eucharist.

2. Choosing a Confirmation Name
Have a good idea of a Confirmation Name for your child before the program begins. This name can be the name given to them at Baptism (if this is a Saint's name) or the name of a suitable canonised Saint from the link below. The Saint's name should be of relevance to your child: e.g. Feast day near their birthday, affinity with the Saint's life or cause, their own name, or the name of person special to them.

3. Choosing a Sponsor

The Sponsor you choose for your child must be a practising Catholic, who is a fully-initiated member of the Catholic church (i.e. has completed their Sacraments, being Confirmation, Reconciliation and First Communion) and is over the age of 16. It is desirable that the Godparent at Baptism, if present, also be the Sponsor at Confirmation. A parent cannot be the sponsor. Another adult may 'stand-in' on the day for the Sponsor, e.g. if the Godparent cannot attend.

If you wish to discuss any of the above, please contact me on maia@lindfieldkillara.org.au
