Confirmation Classes have begun for youth (10th grade & above).The purpose of Confirmation is to prepare candidates for Confirmation, Reception into the Episcopal Church, or Reaffirmation of their Baptismal Faith. In each, it is a journey that leads to a "renewal of faith."
Adults who are new to St. Peter's Church and wish to be prepared for Confirmation and/or Reception into the Episcopal Church are encouraged to participate. For yet others who are already confirmed or received, there may be a desire to reexamine their faith journey and "refresh" their commitment to Jesus Christ. Adults who are interested should speak to Rev. Kurt.
The Book of Common Prayer describes the Sacrament of Confirmation as: "...the rite in which we express a mature commitment to Christ, and receive strength from the Holy Spirit through prayer and the laying on of hands by a bishop."
