Godparents and sponsors may have questions—and perhaps even some hesitations—about their role. This compact guide explains what their responsibilities are and offers practical ideas to help them engage throughout the OCIA process and beyond.

The guide covers the basics of OCIA, clarifies the distinct roles of godparents and sponsors, and walks through what accompaniment looks like at each stage of the journey—from the Precatechumenate all the way through Mystagogy. For each phase, it provides concrete conversation starters to help sponsors and godparents move beyond small talk and into the real spiritual conversations their role calls for.

Above all, the guide encourages godparents and sponsors to embrace their calling: to be a Christian witness, friend, prayer warrior, and ally to the person they are accompanying—not just through the Easter Vigil, but for the long journey of discipleship that follows.
