9th Grade Confirmation
Confirmation is not simply a “rite of passage.” Nor is it just a class to complete. It is a step in a life-long journey of pursuing the height, depth, and width of God’s love and making a vow to live in relationship with God for the rest of your life!
Historically, a confirmation class was designed as a church rite of passage, where a young person crossed over into adulthood and claimed their faith for themselves. If you were baptized as a child in a Christian church, your parents and the whole church took vows to guide and nurture you in the Christian faith. Your faith as a child was wrapped up in the faith of those who love you.
Our Confirmation process is designed to help you claim that faith for yourself and make those vows your own. We have planned a program of worship and study, fellowship and service which will give you the opportunity to not only learn about the faith, but will also give you the opportunity to question and explore, experience and wonder about the God who loves you and wants to be in relationship with you!
Confirmation is a time for adventure and exploration, a time to learn and grow in the faith. This eight-month process is designed for 8th graders and above to:
Gain a basic knowledge and understanding of the Christian Story.
Learn about the core beliefs, practices, and emphases of The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
Explore the vows that confirmands will take if they choose to be confirmed so that they understand the commitment they will be making.
