Confirmation is the opportunity for young people to confirm the
promises that were made by them or for them at their baptism. Our confirmation
program allows 9th and 10th graders to explore what their faith and church
really mean to them. Concepts are presented, but serious discussion is
encouraged to help the participants think through the application of these
concepts to their lives. The youth are encouraged to voice their questions and
concerns on any subject.
The overall Confirmation program is multi-faceted, including
confirmation classes, involvement with regular Sunday Church School and Worship,
and participation in the Passion Play. Classes are held
approximately twice per month. Check the calendar
of events for specific dates. The Passion Play is presented every year on
Good Friday. We also take the Passion Play on the road, presenting it to another
congregation. During rehearsals and presentation of the Passion Play, the
participants end up memorizing the passion story, which is the heart of the New
Testament.
