Our Confirmation Program consists of two years of instruction that cover the five promises that are made during the Affirmation of Baptism. Affirmation of Baptism is made at the completion of the Confirmation Program.
The Five Promises of the Affirmation of Baptism:
- To live among God’s faithful people
- To hear his Word and share in his supper
- To proclaim the good news of God in Christ through word and deed
- To serve all people, following the example of our Lord Jesus
- To strive for justice and peace in all the Earth
Confirmation class meets Sunday evenings from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. and also includes a time of fellowship and relationship building. We also encourage youth in our Confirmation Program to participate in a variety of youth activities offered by the church.
To enroll your child in Confirmation classes, please contact Suzanne Snider by email at suzanne@clcwyoming.org or phone 616-532-2774 ext. 203.
