Scene from Passion Play - Jesus Teaching the DisciplesConfirmation

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.
