REQUIREMENTS FOR GODPARENTS
Godparents are to help “the baptized person to lead a Christian life in keeping with Baptism and to fulfill faithfully the obligations” of being a Christian (Code of Cannon Law c. 872).  Because godparents have this important role to play in their godchildren’s lives, each Godparent must be-

2. A Catholic who has been Baptized and received First Holy Communion and the Sacrament of Confirmation.
3. Practicing the Catholic faith, including REGULAR ATTENDANCE at Sunday Mass (except in case of illness or other just cause),
4. If married, married in the Catholic Church (Code of Canon Law c. (874).

For persons not in the parish a note from the pastor of church to which the Godparent attends  indicating that he or she is in good standing with the Catholic faith is required.

A baptized person who belongs to a non-Catholic Church may not be godparent, but can be a witness to the baptism, together with the Catholic sponsor.
