Our mission at All Saints is to know, follow, and share Jesus. The confirmation program offers an opportunity for young people to explore their faith, ask questions, and hopefully to grow in their relationship with God and with others, further equipping them to continue knowing, following and sharing Jesus! It is not simply a program of the church, but a partnership between God, students, parents, pastor, and the whole church.
During our time together, we will study the Bible and Luther’s Small Catechism (which includes topics like the Lord’s Prayer, the Apostles’ Creed, the 10 Commandments, and the sacraments). The two years of confirmation lead to the Affirmation of Baptism, when students are given the opportunity to say “yes” to the promises their parents made for them in baptism, and commit to continuing in the promises God made with them through water and word:
As we seek to live into those promises we will make, expectations of the program include class participation, worship notes, and service activities. Worship notes and service reflection forms are available at the welcome desk in the narthex, as well as right here:

- To hear the word of God and share in the Lord’s supper,
- To proclaim the good news of God in Christ through word and deed,
- To serve all people, following the example of Jesus,
- To strive for justice and peace in all the earth.
