Classes for our 7th & 8th graders and older youth that have not yet been confirmed will begin in Fall and run through late Spring, with breaks during the Thanksgiving, Christmas, & Easter holidays. Classes are usually held on Sundays from 12:30 – 1:15 PM.
The two-year program features an overview of the Bible, The Ten Commandments, The Apostle’s Creed, Lord’s Prayer and the Sacraments. The class requirements also include sermon outlines & service projects. We will also be offering a weeklong Confirmation Camp at one of our Michigan Lutheran camps each summer with the Pastor.
Parents are invited to serve as monitors for the class as well as on any field trips that may come up. Parents are also needed to volunteer to provide a light lunch for the group (two parents, every other week). The youth bring a sack lunch one week and have lunch provided the next week.
The Affirmation of Faith (Confirmation) is celebrated the 3rd Sunday in May each year at the first service. This year it will take place on May 20, 2007.
