Confirmation

"Confirmation ministry is a pastoral and education ministry of the church that helps the baptized through Word and Sacrament to identify more deeply with the Christian community and participate more fully in its mission."                              -- The Confirmation ministry Task Force Report, ELCA, 1993

Everything involved in confirmation ministry flows from Baptism. Confirmation happens in a living community of faith and is the responsibility of the whole congregation. Effective confirmation ministry involves use of a variety of persons and approaches. Young people benefit from confirmation ministry programs that include diverse models of learning.

Currently young people in 7th & 8th grades meet on Sunday mornings in a study of Old and New Testaments.  In addition, classes are held the first Saturday morning of each month when students and their parents review the Small Catechism.
