News and Notes – January 2013
Dear 6th Grade Youth,
You are invited on a very important journey – Confirmation!
What is Confirmation? Being in middle school, you are at a special age when you are not only making more decisions for yourself but also may find yourself questioning what you believe. Confirmation is a great time to ask those questions. Confirmation refers to the decision a person makes to respond to God’s grace with intentional commitment, publicly reaffirming his or her baptismal vows before the congregation. We offer a deliberate time of preparation before this service.
