An informational meeting about Confirmation will be held September 23 at 12 PM in the Fireside Room. All youth in grades 9-12 and their parents are invited to attend.
What is Confirmation and why is it important? The answer to that question begins with baptism. Baptism is the God-given means of establishing us as member’s of God’s family. In baptism, no matter what age it is administered, a person becomes a full member of Christ’s Holy Church. At various times in our lives, we are given opportunities to renew the baptismal covenant that was made at our baptism. Confirmation is one such time in our life. Through the process of confirmation, each confirmand is guided on an intense spiritual journey as a disciple of Christ.
During our confirmation process, youth are paired with mentors and together, learn from each other through Bible study, prayer and activities based on the Bible, our local church and our national denomination. At the end of the process, youth are invited to confirm their baptism and join this local congregation as members of the church.
