Confirmation

“Confirmation ties together God’s act in Christ and our response in faith.
It reminds us of the power of the community of faith and
promises the presence of the Spirit on our journey,” (OC, p. 31).

History and Information about Confirmation in The United Methodist Church

Much of the material taught on our retreats/workshops cannot be made up, therefore we ask for you to commit to your student’s full participation at those weekends (for the entire time). The small group sessions/mission experiences are a large part of the confirmation experience and create a long lasting bond for the confirmation students. Although we can provide homework for missed Sunday school lessons, the students will not receive the full benefit of the material if they are not present when it is taught. Please check your calendars carefully before signing up. We are asking for you and your student to make a commitment to put Confirmation first on your calendar. It is when we put our Christian formation above our busy schedules that we begin to act as true disciples.

2011/2012 Confirmation Cost

The cost of confirmation is based on the two weekend events for meals and for the leadership team at the spring event as well as the cost of the supplies for keepsakes that are made.  We have combined all of the expenses into a total payment.  There will be a registration fee and then the balance is divided by two payments.  You can make your payments following our payment schedule (listed below) or pay the yearly total all at once.  If you choose to pay all at once, payment is due on the first payment deadline.
