Confirmation refers to the decision a person makes to respond to publicly reaffirming his or her baptism vows in front of the congregation. Most confirmands are young people between the ages of eleven and fourteen, who have been nurtured in the church since their baptism as an infant or young child. Most churches offer a deliberate time of preparation before this service. We call this the CONFIRMATION EXPERIENCE.

Confirmation is a bi-annual, 9 week experience designed to disciple 7th and 8th grade students towards becoming a fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ. Learning is facilitated though a combination of games, small group discussion, large group lessons, service projects, and an exciting retreat. Each confirmand will be assigned to a small group and an adult mentor. Each small group will also have one to two high school student mentors to foster Christian relationships that will continue after Confirmation concludes.

Even though Confirmation is designed for 7th and 8th grades, our 6th grade students and visitors and guests are encouraged to still participate on Wednesday nights. They will join in the same activities and lessons as our 7th and 8th grade students, yet they will participate in their own designated CELL teams. This will serve as a pre-Confirmation Experience for our 6th grade students.
