Confirmation
Youth in the 6th through 8th grades are invited to participate in confirmation class.
Confirmation classes using We Believe curriculum provide a great opportunity to give students a broad view of basic Christian beliefs including the characteristics of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit; the importance and nature of the Bible; the need to trust in Jesus Christ for salvation; and the significance of the church.
We Believe also includes topics such as general church history and the responsibilities of discipleship and church membership. It offers students a basic but thorough understanding of what it means to be a Christian in the United Methodist tradition.–from Bristol House, Ltd.
