My kids also got cards saying a donation was made in their name to the place where they volunteered during Confirmation prep and another nonprofit they like, and religious stuff from family who are practicing Catholics (rosary, books about their saint). Their favorite thing was a Catholic book entitled Tattoos on the Heart. It's popular.


This is mean. Unless a child does not want gifts or money, it is rude and inconsiderate to take away their right to gifts.


No right o gfigtehs the kids want ot hte convreimation it is htey decision. They do not need agiigtt just a card.

Should I place a gift card or money inside the card?


You can go to Target or Safeway or what have you, and get one of those money holder that are designed for the First Communion. Go to the card sections, find First Communion, and buy two cards. One to wish all good stuff, and another, the money holder card, put money in that one and place inside big nice card. Kid will save the big one and dispose the small one.

I will be attending my niece's confirmation service my sister's Catholic parish. What is an appropriate gift to give? I have a card. Should I place a gift card or money inside the card or is that unacceptable? I am a non practicing Catholic who has not attended a confirmation since I was confirmed. So, I am totally out of the loop. When I was confirmed I only received religious related gifts. What type of gift besides a card would you recommend? Thanks!
