I'm wearing white underneath Mr. Ugly. I have a white dress and a white sweater and I'm wearing red shoes with it.

I was confirmed 8 years ago (I'm 22), and we wore white robes. They buttoned right at the neck, and when I knelt for communion it choked me! And the robe was long, so I was kneeling on it. This only made things worse.

My shoes came off during Mass, too, but that's another story. Put simply, I was a mess at Confirmation. :hehe:

How do I begin on the confirmation process.

[FutureCarmeliteClaire]

Whoa. Old thread bumped. Lawlz

Your robe looks like a bad graduation gown. I understand the modesty and Not everyone can afford the nice confrimation dress but there is a goodwill and the like. Also telling these kids we expect you to dress the way because it is respectful and reverent before the lord. I know Cofirmation teachers pay for these thngs. I have seen girls show up immodest and told that they couldn't get confrimed unless they covered up. A little extreme but it does get the point across.

I've already shown it, but what's another time? This is me and my brother getting Confirmed (I come in at 1:15):

Hey, Adam,

 

I don't think any of us officially greeted you!   :welcome:

 

You might want to start a 'hi i'm new here' thread on OpenMic or Lame Board -- so we can get to know you a bit.

 

As far as confirmation, are you a teen or a young adult?   Does your parish have an RCIA program? If so that is probably what they will want you to do if you want to be confirmed.  It lets you prepare to really understand what being a Catholic is all about, and to get a more adult vision of being Catholic.   Some parishes and dioceses do it differently however, so you need to call your local parish to get started.

 

Of course, if you aren't Catholic, that's how you do that as well!

 

But either way, welcome to PhatMass.   (I'm the person who fell down the Church Stairs to celebrate my confirmation, btw... and thank you for propping my story!)

 

;)

 

Welcome again!!!!

Oh, Adam... to let you in on the joke.

 

There was  a thread about the same time as this one that had to do with the 'immodest' shoes that Lil'Red planned to wear to Christmas Mass!   It featured shoes that looked a lot like these:

 

 

 

 

 

 

^{Here's a link to the thread -- for some reason the actual photo got removed, but as I said, looked a lot like the ones above.}

^{Please -- YOU should NOT plan to wear read shoes like those for YOUR confirmation!  ;)}

Im Adam Scott, Im 30 I live in Muncie Indiana. Im new to the forum. Im unemployed I like to have one of my own Mr. Uglies minus the heels. MY Mr. Ugly should be preferably white with fluted sleeves and shuld be very tight around the neck.

[Autumn Dusk]

I actually agree with the white robe.  To put on a white robe is very biblical, and something I think we should use more for many initiation sacraments.

[cartermia]

Hope they don't add the white beanie with the red pompom. Trust me, it makes that red robe take on a new dimension of ugly.

My confirmation was the first time I got to wear nylons. Whoo-hoooo! And my first high heels! Yippee!

That was also the first and last time I fell down the entire church stairs.... and it was this church:



and yes, I was the flashing red ball going down all 20 of them, front and center, in front of about 100 confirmandi and families and friends... and a bishop.

And then limping my way up to the same bishop to be confirmed.... Definitely remember my confirmation. :)

Both nylons and shoes were total write-offs... fortunately the Confirmation was not. Wonderful Sacrament!

Just goes to show what is really important!

When is your Confirmation -- we want to be praying!

Lol :hehe:

 

That reminds me of something I did when I was serving the Confirmation Mass two years ago....

 

I went down to Communion to hold the pallet for the priest and when I was coming walking up the stairs I tripped and fell (right in front of the bishop) because my alb was too long... *cough*thanks Fr. Ivan*cough*.

At the reception the bishop came up to me and told me I should be a Dominicans... :hehe: .

 

 

Finally I will be getting Confirmed but I don't have to wear Mr. Ugly, I get to wear a pretty white dress with flowers on it! :princess:

You have to wear robes?

That smells of elderberries.

not against wearing these robes. I hope for the entire RCIA classes process.

I like robes that are snug at the neck.

will  i continue to wear Mr Uglies after confirmation process or will I be upgraded to Albs &  cassocks

[Adam Scott]

The last time I was in a catholic church in Cincinnati to go to the bathroom before a Reds Game I was wearing cargo shorts and a wife beater. They put a server robe on me.

No That was a cassock and surplice that I had to wear at that church in Cincinnati.

[ascott1]

:shock:

How comfortable are these robes? I know in some churches for confirmations they wear cassock and surplice.
