Confirmation is an affirmation of one's baptism.
In confirmation, 6th, 7th and 8th graders are invited to participate in classes which help the student affirm their own baptism. Students participate in a variety of learning and fellowship events that encourage them to grow their faith. During these years they will spend time learning more about the Bible and Luther’s Small Catechism. These middle-schoolers spend time together in both large group settings and small group time with an adult guide/mentor. Confirmation begins in September and continues into May, meeting most Wednesday nights. At the end of the 3-year class cycle, students confirm their faith during the fall of their ninth grade year. They affirm their faith during a special worship service that is student led on Reformation Sunday, the last Sunday of October each year. |
