Confirmation in the Diocese of Harrisburg is administered to candidates at least 13 years of age. In recent years, Confirmation has been conferred in the spring. A course of instruction is required prior to this, which takes place as part of the parish CCD program, which meets at the church on Sundays from 9:15am to 10:15am during the academic year.
Confirmation sponsors who are not members of the parish will need letters of good standing from their respective pastors. Confirmation sponsors must satisfy the requirements for a Confirmation sponsor stipulated by the Catholic Church, which are the same as those for baptism (per canon 893).
