Confirmation

Where: San Roque Cathedral (Caloocan)
When: July 25, 2009

I just had my confirmation last Sat at the San Roque Cathedral (Caloocan). Good thing I did my research and discovered several churches where you can have your confirmation even if it is not the town's fiesta. The seminar, confession and the sacrament of confirmation are done in one day. To do those who are planning to get married and needs to be confirmed, you can choose from the following:

1. San Miguel Church (near Malacañang)
Pros: You can get your certificate on the same day of your confirmation
Cons: The fee is Php 600
Note: Please call the office for the schedule (if I remember correctly, it's every Thurs, Sat and Sun).

2. Quiapo Church
Pros: Cheaper than San Miguel Church, the fee is only Php 200 plus Php 50 for the certificate
Cons: You need to register in person before the confirmation day. Your principal sponsor should be 10yrs older than you and needs to be confirmed already
Note: The schedule for confirmation is every Sunday and you get the certificate after a week.

3. San Roque Church
Pros: They only ask for a xerox of your birth certificate. The fee is also cheaper compared to San Miguel Church (Php 300) and its nearer from our place. Since you get the certificate after a week, they can provide a temporary certificate for you.
Cons: None Ü
Note: The schedule for confirmation is every 4th saturday of the month. You also need to register and pay the fee before the confirmation day.
