Confirmation Class

In January 2021 we begin our Student Confirmation class called Journey to Confirmation. This class is open to any student, 8th grade or above, who is not yet confirmed in the Anglican or Episcopal Church.

Confirmation is a sacramental act in which Christians make a mature, public profession of their faith in Jesus and are commissioned by a Bishop as ministers of the Gospel. In front of the entire congregation, the Bishop lays hands upon confirmands and asks the Holy Spirit to fill them for the mission of God. It is a special moment in the life of a Christian and critical to our formation in the faith.

To prepare you for this big moment, all confirmation candidates must complete a 10-week course that begins January 10 and ends March 21 (with a Sunday off for Spring Break). Journey to Confirmation teaches the essentials of the Christian faith and equips you with the skills you need to fulfill the Great Commission.

Classes are on Sundays @ 4 - 5 p.m. in the Youth Praise Center.
You must attend at least nine classes in order to be confirmed.

If you wish to participate, a parent or guardian must attend one of two upcoming online parent orientation meetings:

Sunday, December 6 @ 4 p.m. -or- Tuesday, December 8 @ 7 p.m.

As the primary disciple-makers of the household, parents need to understand what Journey to Confirmation is about and how they can support your journey in this class. For this reason, the parent orientation is mandatory.
