Sacrament Of Confirmation Case Study
Did you know that twenty percent of the population gets confirmed into the Catholic Church each year? In the sacrament of Confirmation, you are confirming your life with Christ forever in the Church. When someone goes through Confirmation, they ask one of their role models to be a sponsor for them. My sponsor is my older sister, Annabelle Bloomer. I will introduce Annabelle, explain why I choose her as my sponsor, and how I plan to be affected by the sacred sacrament of Confirmation.
I have known my sister, my whole life. My sister’s full name is Annabelle Frances Catherine Bloomer. My sister was born in Indianapolis, Indiana on August 31, 1988. Growing up, Catholicism had an immense effect on Annabelle’s life. Attending St. Luke Catholic

But my older sister Annabelle has been the most influential to me. Annabelle is one of the most caring, responsible, and hardworking sister I have ever got the pleasure to spend my life with. She is compassionate about the faith and her family. Annabelle, while in college goes to mass most Sundays and is infatuated with her relationship with God. Annabelle prays the rosary anytime she is overwhelmed, irritated, or sad. Annabelle has supported me with acting, friends, and behavior. She has inspired me many of times and with her situations she has been in. I look up to Annabelle because she is confident, creative, and strong. Annabelle looks for the best in people and is always there to comfort me. Annabelle does exactly what she believes in and does not care what anybody else thought about her. Annabelle believes in me no matter what she knows that I can do anything I put my mind too. Annabelle participates in IUDM. IUDM is the Indiana University Dance Marathon. This marathon raises money for cancer kids. Annabelle has empathy and a deeper understanding of all of her surroundings. She is someone I want to talk too, hangout with, and spread our faith. Annabelle is one of my best friends and someone I trust that I know will never let me down. Annabelle will give me advice that I will use the rest of my life and that’s why I chose her to be my …show more content…
I hope to gain a strong, healthy, and respectable relationship with my sponsor. I want to grow a more loving relationship than we already have. I know Annabelle will be by my side through it all, graduations, weddings, and any other special holy events in high school. I believe that having Annabelle be my sponsor will help me in high school with my faith. I want Annabelle to be by my side my whole life no matter how far away we are. Asking Annabelle about her knowledge in the faith is very important to me. Since Annabelle has had more experienced than me I want her to always give me feedback about my faith and involvement with the church. I know Annabelle will help me with my faith in Highschool because she kept her strength with God strong even though she did not go to a catholic school anymore. I want to continue to grow my faith in the Catholic Church through high school and college. Doing that I will have to keep going to mass on Sundays and even though I won’t be learning religion I will follow in my sister's footsteps and do camps and classes like Annabelle that will help spread our

    A new role model I have now in my life is a sister named Dorothy Stang. Dorothy was someone who wanted to make a change in the world and was willing to help anyone she met. Dorothy left her life in Ohio where she could get plenty of anything and she then went to a life where she met people who were struggling to survive by their survival farming. All of those people there had troubles getting what we sometimes take advantage of here. She left the United States and went to Brazil to continue on God’s mission and assisting others. Her strength, faith in God and her selflessness are three of the qualities that she portrays that I admire the most. Dorothy gives such a great example of Christ in the world. She brought the joy of God to so many people in the rainforest.…

    I chose Saint John the Evangelist as my Confirmation patron saint. I chose him because of his bravery, his love of God, and his revelation by God. I want to always stay by Jesus’s side like he did. I want to be willing to die to be with God. St. John was known as the beloved apostle, so I want to be loved by God as well, and hope that I can love God. St. John was given the revelation of the symbolic signs of the apocalypse. Like him, I want to be trusted with being the bearer of the word of God.…

    I enjoyed helping on service day at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church. With my family by my side we cleaned the campus grounds, worked inside the sanctuary cleaning and polishing pews. I met many people from the parish and made friendships. After service day I felt pride, and had fun spending time helping the church, but I realized I wasn’t a member of the church. I spoke to my parents about how passionately my siblings and I wanted to become parishioners. We are a Christian family that believes in God, but it was a huge commitment to become Catholic and join the church.…

    Only two weeks ago I was asked to facilitate a phase four session with one of our patients and her family. The family informed the staff that they were of the Roman Catholic faith. One of the daughters, son-in-law, and I discussed their beliefs and how their specific belief system gives them hope and peace during their time of loss.

This also allows the social worker to use strength-based approaches to focus on the positive nature of their faith, for example seeing their loved one…

    Another reason my older sister is my favorite sister is that she is compassionate. She has great sympathy for other people’s suffering. For instance, she often tries to help poor and homeless people by donating food, clothes, money, etc. She used to work as a volunteer for in a school for the blind children in Vietnam. I still remember when I saw her taught those children to read by touching the special characters. She patiently held her students’ hand and instructed them. Although it was not an easy job, her face was always radiant with smiles. She often told me to give what I got, and to feel happy helping others. My sister cares deeply about other people more than herself.…
