Confirmation Class

Starting on Saturday September 22nd at 4pm, Hilary+, the rector of our church will be teaching a class for youth who want to be confirmed or simply learn more about our Church and our faith. The class meets at church in the library from 4pm to 4:45pm on Sept. 22, 29; October 6, 13, and 20. Bishop Shannon, the diocesan bishop of Virginia, will be with us on Oct. 28th in the afternoon (time tba) for confirmations of youth and adults. Teens who are juniors or seniors in High School also have the option of taking the adult confirmation class that starts on Wednesday September 5th, at 7:30pm. The adult class will meet every Wednesday through October 24th.

Many of us were baptized as babies or really young children and did not get the chance to decide for ourselves whether we would be Christians or not. Confirmation gives us the chance to claim the faith as our own.
