Here are the Requirements for Catholic Confirmation in the Philippines.<\/strong> <\/em>(Photo Credits)<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n I was about eleven years old when I had my confirmation alongside my older brother. I do not even remember what took place during that ceremony, nor where we ate right after.<\/p>\n A quick research though defined confirmation as \u201cthe perfection of Baptism<\/a>.\u201d The priest lays the hand on the person to be confirmed to signify the descent of the Holy Spirit<\/a>\u00a0 on that person. She or he will be then anointed with Chrism to \u201cseal the gift of Holy Spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n Anyway, going back to my story, fast forward ten years later, one of my closest childhood friend had to get married at 20.<\/p>\n And that was when I realized another importance of the sacrament of confirmation or\u201d kumpil.\u201d You need to receive this sacrament before you can get married or receive the sacrament of Holy Matrimony. Anyway, usually confirmation is offered in Catholic<\/a>\u00a0 schools and even in parishes for children<\/a> about 8 to 16 years old and have already received their First Communion. So for those of you who would like to have your children confirmed, go to your parish church<\/a> and inquire about the schedule. If there is already a confirmed schedule you can then ask for their specific requirements, but basically here are the —<\/p>\n \u00a0(Post Continued Below)<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n =====================================================================<\/p>\n ======================================================================================<\/p>\n Make sure that on D-day, you will be at least 10-15 minutes early, and that you are dressed appropriately according to the Church\u2019s Dress Code \u2013 No skimpy and revealing clothes, no shorts, no slippers. Bring a white candle with you.<\/p>\n If and when you badly need to get confirmed, like if for instance you would have to get married ASAP, there are some parishes that conduct confirmation services all year round. You may want to check out the San Miguel Parish in Malacanang Compound in Manila, if they still conduct year-round confirmation services.<\/p>\n Again, please do not assume that these are the ONLY requirements for Catholic Confirmation in the Philippines, as these may slightly vary from parish to parish, so when you inquire, make sure to get a copy of the requirements from your church.<\/p>\n On my end, I will update this post, if and when I would learn more.
