No, a sponsor can be male or female, so a boy can have a female sponsor and a girl can have male sponsor if they choose.
The sponsor should be practicing Catholic who has received Confirmation, age 16 or more, and not a parent.
There is no such word, or a need for one. The word "sponsor" is already a noun applied to a person, group, or company.
A non catholic person needs to receive Baptism first in the Roman Catholic Church in order to receive confirmation. Actually for adult catecumens three sacraments (Baptism , Confirmation and Holy Communion) are incurred on the same day i.e. Easter Sunday.
Not sure of your question. The officiating prelate is usually the bishop or can be a priest if delegated by the bishop. If you mean sponsor, a priest can be a sponsor even if assisting, as he can step off altar to sponsor. But person who is actually confirming cannot be sponsor as he cannot anoint and sponsor at same time; but I am sure it can be worked out.
To be a witness to the faith, and pass on that witness in guidance to the candidate. Qualifications: Catholic, Baptized, received Eucharist,Confirmed,and age 16 or older and not a parent of one to be confirmed.
Roman Catholic AnswerAlthough your parish or diocese may have specific requirements for a Confirmation sponsor, I believe the only absolute requirement is that he or she already be Confirmed in the Catholic Church, in the same rite that you are seeking Confirmation.
No. There are no prerequisites to being baptized. Only that you (as an adult) desire to be baptized. Baptism, however, is a prerequisite to being confirmed. Adults, if they are to be baptized, are usually confirmed on the same day.
Tobi and Obito are not the same person. Tobi is Madara Uchiha. It was confirmed by himself. He will be unmasked later in the series.
Yes. Effective June 26, 2013, an American citizen may sponsor a foreign same-sex spouse for permanent residency ("green card"). There are many other countries where this can happen too, the closest to the US being Mexico, Canada and Argentina.
Yes, the sponsor for baptism or confirmation must be Catholic. See canons 874 and 892-893 in the Code of Canon Law. It's the sponsor's job to help bring the person up in the Catholic faith and to " take care that the confirmed person behaves as a true witness of Christ and faithfully fulfills the obligations inherent in this sacrament." See the full requirements below. (Canon 893 specifies that the same requirements listed for a baptism sponsor also apply to a confirmation sponsor.) 1/ be designated by the one to be baptized, by the parents or the person who takes their place, or in their absence by the pastor or minister and have the aptitude and intention of fulfilling this function; 2/ have completed the sixteenth year of age, unless the diocesan bishop has established another age, or the pastor or minister has granted an exception for a just cause; 3/ be a Catholic who has been confirmed and has already received the most holy sacrament of the Eucharist and who leads a life of faith in keeping with the function to be taken on; 4/ not be bound by any canonical penalty legitimately imposed or declared; 5/ not be the father or mother of the one to be baptized.
Definition of Double Jeapordy: Double jeopardy refers to a person being tried again for the same offense after being acquitted.
A baptismal sponsor is the same thing as a Godparent. The Godparent approaches the Church together with the catechumen (the one who is to be baptized) as a spiritual support and patron. If the one to be baptized cannot answer for him/her, such as a baby, the sponsor answers in their name and takes the responsibility of catechizing them in the faith in conjunction with the legal guardians of the child.
A disability will not prevent a person from getting a visa. A disabled person is able to have a person to assist in the consulate. But the sponsor or applicant themselves would be liable for his medical expenses while in the US. Other than this the process is as the same for everyone else.
