Confirmation is a pastoral and educational ministry of the church which helps the baptized child through Word and Sacrament to identify more deeply with the Christian community and participate more fully in it’s mission. First Lutheran encourages all 6^th – 8^th grade students to participant in three years of instruction. In their 9^th grade year, students take up the baton of Faith. The 9^th graders will put their faith into action by completing at least 30 hours of service work throughout the school year, participating in Confirmation teachings, and leading small group sessions. Confirmation runs every Wednesday night starting at 5:45 pm in Koinonia for supper and then 6:00 pm Confirmation in the Mezzanine.
