Curriculum
During Confirmation students prepare to "confirm" their faith and reaffirm baptismal promises that were made for them by their parents. Our program is based on Luther's Small Catechism with emphasis on incorporating these ideals into junior high life as it is. We also study the Bible, Lutheran Worship and church organization. The goal is to equip the youth for making tough decisions and living lives full of grace and meaning.
