“...but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,”
Confirmation is the process in which we teach our students (6-8 grade) to trust, seek, and follow Jesus. It is part of growing in their faith, helping it take deeper root. It takes place for 30-45 minutes during or after worship on Sundays. The focus of this time is to gain Biblical knowledge, an understanding of basic doctrine and theology, and apply these teachings to our daily walk with Jesus.
