Confirmation Goals and Calendar

Goals for confirmation

**Knowledge of the Bible, the Lutheran Faith, and the Catechism (Apostles Creed, Lord's Prayer, 10 Commandments, and the Sacraments of Baptism and Communion)

**Being a part of a community! Knowing that each person is a valuable member of the class, church, and God's world. This is a time when young people can establish a life-long relationship with each other, but more importantly, with GOD and the CHURCH!

**Service! Realizing that we are called to be a part of God's mission in the world in service to others!

**Individual gifts! I hope that during this time, students will realize gifts that they have from God that are individual to them and learn to celebrate and use those gifts!

**Growing into their identity as Children of God!

**Confirmation isn't the "end" of education, but rather the beginning of a lifetime of service to God and God's church.
