Confirmation Program

Confirmation is a life-long commitment to learning and growing in Christ. A three-year course instructs our 6^th-8^th graders and prepares them for the Rite of Confirmation.

During the 3^rd-5^th grade years we prepare our children for certain milestones in their lives, such as First Communion. Our classes meet for four sessions during a particular month—please refer to the chart below. During the month of October, 3^rd graders, will prepare for the giving of Bibles, the milestone for the third-grade.

In February, the fourth graders will prepare for their First Communion. As in the past, parents are encouraged to decide when their children are ready to begin this class; some will choose an earlier year and others as late as 8^th grade. Please talk with Pastors Kurt or Carolyn if you have any concerns or questions about what is right for your child.

“Bibles: Part of the Baptismal Promise”

Parents and 3^rd graders have a class to attend together on Wednesday nights, from 6:00-7:00. At the end of the class, Bibles will be presented on Reformation Sunday, October 26^th at the 10:30 service. Parents will get to create an inscription plate and sign it personally for their child, and during the service, the parents will also present the Bible to their child.
