Thank you to the girls who I missed their complements on the last thread

We go to our first Communion at the age of 15 (though children younger than that can go to the Communion with their parents but they won't get bread and wine, they can only be blessed). Before that we go to confirmation classes, usually a confirmation camp which lasts a bit over a week, but it can also be a dayschool type of thing where the classes are held during a longer period of time. And we also wear a white gown but no vail. It doesn't look as festive as yours.

Wow that is so different.
So you recieve Confirmation before your 1st Communion?
We recieve Confirmation at 12/13 years old and then after that we don't have to take religion classes anymore. Confirmation is less fancy. Just a nice dress that we usually wear under a red or white and red robe. We also chose a sponser, like a godmother or godfather, it can be the same person(s) from our baptisim if we want. We also then chose a Confirmation name.

Yeah, we receive it at the same ceremony, first the Confirmation followed shortly by the Communion. Here the Confirmation is actually a much bigger deal than the first Communion. You need to receive it in order to become a godparent or get married in a church. And we also wear nice clothes under the white gown/robe (it's called "alba"). We can't choose a sponsor but the godparents from our baptism are usually involved in the Confirmation somehow, like giving presents. And we can't choose a Confirmation name either.

Maria, can't wait to see your pics!
