Confirmation ministry
September—MAY
Wednesdays from 6:00 - 7:00
Confirmation at Faith is an interactive program for 6th—8th grade students that takes place during the school year on Wednesday nights at 6:00 pm and at various retreats throughout the year. 9th graders participate in a Fall Retreat prior to The Rite of Confirmation (a.k.a. Affirmation of Baptism) the final Sunday in October at 10:30 am.
Confirmation is a time for relationship, outreach, community, and growth in the knowledge of who God is and how God is at work in the world. Confirmation isn’t just an academic process or a requirement for membership at Faith. Rather, the goal of Confirmation is to create a strong community of young people who have the tools necessary to live out a life of faith.
