Confirmation (7th-9th graders)
Confirmation at Light of Christ is a three-year interactive program for 7th, 8th, and 9th grade students (typically) that takes place during the school year on Wednesday nights from 6:15-8:00 pm. After three years in the Confirmation community, the Rite of Confirmation (Affirmation of Baptism) is celebrated during their 10th grade year during a Sunday worship service.
Confirmation is an exciting time for relationships, outreach, community and growth in the knowledge of who God is and how God is at work in the world. During these 3 years, youth dive deeper into their faith, ask questions (in fact, questions are encouraged!) and learn more about the promises that were made in their baptism. Confirmation isn’t just an academic process or a requirement for membership at Light of Christ. Rather, the goal of Confirmation is to use the Bible, fellowship, small group conversations, service-learning, retreats/trips and testimonies to create a strong community of young people who have the tools necessary to live out a life of faith!
