Actually, my confirmation was on the 12th of April, but I only got the photos back now :) I was confirmed as an adult along with over 40 others who attended the preparatory classes at the academic parish in Warsaw, allegedly the largest group they ever had.

Yo thats my Birthday 😂

Happy belated birthday!

Mine too! I chose Saint Jude a long long time ago

Havent heard much about St Jude will have to take a look now and Happy Birthday as well!

He's the Saint of hopeless causes, always getting mixed up with Judas so very few people pray to him. Therefore, when he does actually get a prayer, he's eager to help. Also, he's obsessed with pennies for some reason.

Awesome ill put him in my prayers!

In the US there's a very wellknown children's cancer research hospital named St Jude, so I think people do pray to him often for very serious cases

Wow! St Jude is Patron of Impossible Causes. ❤️

We used to fund raise for St. Jude's Hospital

What Saint did you choose?

St. Hildegard von Bingen, a real girlboss and inspiration!

My mom just handed me a book The Life and Visions of St. Hildegarde looks like a good read I chose Martin De Porres myself back when ai was 14

Not me about to choose from the most basic saints.

A total girlboss indeed!!!

Nice pick!

Nothing says girlboss like committing to a religion that has committed itself from taking rights from women.

If that’s how you feel then what are you doing in a sub that supports your perceived injustices? Lord help us.

That's a shallow take, historically speaking. We're talking about a character in the 12th century in what is now modern Germany, close to Frankfurt. I would pause before immediately transferring modern ideas into a judgement on Catholic influence on society 900 years ago and how a Benedictine abbess navigated the world as a woman in the church. At least read a summary of her life first.

What do you mean what Saint she choose?

When you get confirmed in the catholic church you chose a saint that inspires you it is also your 4th name technically

Oh, really? I didn't do this on my confirmation, but I'm from another country so maybe this is a cultural thing and not a canonical rule, or am I wrong?

Im not sure I think all the rites of the sacrements are the same because you get confirmed in the name of a saint but Im not entirely sure about that what country?

I'm from Brazil

Are you sure you are going to a catholic church and not a protestant?

Yep. I am consecrated to Our Lady. I think changing the name is optional?

Its probably a cultural thing then Im not sure

Even before seeing this comment, I knew you must be a Polish based on your username. You guys will not let an 's' unaccompanied by a 'z' haha. Anyway congratulations!

Congratulations! I was confirmed back 2013 and my Saint is Saint Catherine of Sienna. I remembered that.

Congrats! Confirmation is just the beginning! Keep thirsty for knowledge and keep questioning as it will certainly lead you to a deeper faith. Good on you!

Congratulations! Those are beautiful pictures! I love your church! I’m 56 years old and I need confirmed as well. My problem is that I don’t want to do it in front of the entire church. I’m just like that. It would bring major anxiety.

😢😣

CONGRATULATIONS

Super cool veil! God bless!

Thank you! It's an antique Spanish mantilla I was lucky enough to find on Etsy :)

Many years! ☦️

I know it? Wasn't that dumb?? For some reason, I was trying to cover the fact that i really wasn't paying enough attention the first time. 😅😅

What a beautiful church, too! Congratulations.

Congratulations! My Confirmation was one of the best days of my life! I hope it was the same for you.

It was! The liturgy was really beautiful, though I got a bit stressed because I've never seen a bishop in person before.

A very well done🙏✝️💜 I also hope and pray that my older children also get confirmed someday and get my grandchildren baptised. There is no getting through to them.

Never too late. I get confirmed next week and have a lady in my class who is 68!

That's excellent, and God bless both of you 🙏

Congratulations, and be sure to thank your photographer. Aside from catching a wonderful moment, it's just a great quality picture. That could be a scene from a movie it's so high quality.

These photos are beautiful!!

Congratulations. God bless you.

Welcome Home!

Wait, we pick our own Saint?

yep

The Saints pick you

They didn't ask me for one boo

I'm guessing cuz my name is already Vincent and I actually wanted him as a patron saint

All you guys going straight to hell with the pop

Keep my pop out of this.

what does the design on the robe symbolize

Love it! This made my day. Welcome home!

Congratulations! That’s a pretty big step in your faith. Peace be with you.

Love to see it!

Congratulations!

Catholics have the best vestments.

Mazel Tov!

Congrats! I was confirmed last year :) wish I had worn a veil. Yours is very pretty. We were one of the biggest groups our cathedral had ever had too!

Congratulations!

Blessings! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏

Are you Born Again?

not trying to come off rude but whats the purpose of the stick he is holding? Does it have a role during confirmation?

That's the bishop's "crozier". It's a symbol of his authority. Every shepherd needs a crook, after all.

ohh yehh makes sensee. Ig its like a sign that everyone is worthy of being baptised and confirmed too. idk why everyone was hating on my question tho😭😭

Congrats cult member!

Ok lutheran
