Confirmation Class 2018-19: Beginning this Sunday

Sundays, October to May
11 am – 12 pm

In the course of their Christian development, those baptized at an early age are expected, when they are ready and have been duly prepared, to make a mature public affirmation of their faith and commitment to the responsibilities of their Baptism and to receive the laying on of hands by the bishop. (BCP, 412)

Confirmation Class at St. John’s is open to young people age 12 years and up. Beginning on October 21, classes will be held approximately every other week, after the 10 am service, until Confirmation at the Cathedral in early May, 2019. Approximately 16 classes.

Students will gain an understanding of the Christian faith in the Episcopal tradition through the Baptismal Covenant, the Nicene Creed, and candid conversations about the Trinity, the church and its history. Students will also be required to read at a service, serve as an acolyte and take part in a service opportunity. If you have any questions, or to register for the class, please contact The Rev. Jesse Lebus.
