confirmation Class

Confirmation is off for the summer! See you again in August!
7th and 8th grade students are typically ready to dive deeper into their faith so they can better understand this faith into which they've been baptized. Shalom offers gathering on Wednesday night, starting with a simple meal. Each family signs up to provide food once (or twice, depending on size of the class) so we can begin and end at an earlier time. 

Students are challenged to also serve others outside their immediate family by completing 10 service hours. In addition, learners are invited to complete worship reflection notes at least 15 times. They are also asked to bring light into worship by acolyting. Families are encouraged to sign up to lead in greeting, reading, ushering, or hosting coffee. 

*Worship leading/acolyting signup is 
found here.

Old Testament and New Testament are taught during scripture year along with a unit on Luther and Reformation History. 
Catechism year brings teachings on 10 Commandments, Apostles Creed, Lord's Prayer, and unit on Sacraments.
9th grade students complete their confirmation experience after doing 3 sessions to provoke their thoughts on their relationship with God (as Creator, Redeemer, Comforter) and write a faith statement, followed by a discussion with Pastor. The Affirmation of Baptism (Rite of Confirmation) occurs on Reformation Sunday in October.
*Sign up for 9th Grade Confirmation here
