Our mission is to lead young people to a personal commitment to Christ.
In most instances, confirmation takes place during the 6th grade school year. The program includes social activities, service opportunities and small group learning environments. Registration is underway right now and classes begin in January. Participation in the class is required for confirmation in the Spring.
