Letter of Good Standing

Home  /  Letter of Good Standing

A Letter of Good Standing verifies that you are a registered and practicing Catholic and are eligible to serve as a Godparent, Confirmation Sponsor, or receive a Sacrament.

To request a letter from St. Francis Parish, you must:

Be Registered

  • Be a registered parishioner for at least 6 months
  • Adults (age 25+) must be registered separate from parents
  • If newly registered, a letter from your previous parish may be required

Be Practicing Your Faith

  • Attend Sunday Mass and Holy Days

Support the Parish

  • Support St. Francis Parish through involvement in a ministry, volunteering, and/or financial giving
  • For financial contributions, using offertory envelopes or online giving helps us verify your participation

IMPORTANT:
Letters are issued based on active and verifiable participation in parish life. Our clergy can only attest to what is reflected in parish records.
