Confirmation

Confirmation is an important milestone in the life of a young person. Our program reflects our belief that preparing to confess one’s personal faith is a significant endeavor that requires time and dedication. The two-year program includes the following components:

• Biblical education
• Information about what makes the Lutheran faith unique
• Weekend retreats in both years to build fellowship and dive deeper into topics of study
• Mission trip concentrated on service to the community – the most recent trip to Washington DC focused on the struggles of poverty and homelessness and included volunteer time at DC Central Kitchen
• Self-exploration, including analysis of personality type and spiritual gifts assessment
• Final project designed to allow students to creatively express their faith

The current class was confirmed in June and the new class will begin in September 2019. If you have a young person who will be entering the 7^th or 8^th grade in the fall, please contact Pastor Ward or Carol Schierlmann for more details or to express your interest in joining our next class.
