Another year of Confirmation Ministry with catecheti-cal instruction is about to begin. The class of 20-25 seventh and eighth grade youth, along with their par-ents serving as Guides, will cover the Commandments and Lord’s Prayer at biweekly Learn Events, and giv-ing of Time, Talent, and Treasure at the fall retreat. This program utilizes the Head to the Heart Power Point themes produced by the Lutheran organization Faith Inkubators.
The youth will also receive acolyte training on Septem-ber 13 during the regular Sunday Learning Event time of 6:30 PM while their parents participate in a “Back To Confirmation Night” in the Parish Hall, where the goals and volunteer opportunities of the program will be reviewed. Youth choosing to sing in the Youth Choir will not be responsible for serving as acolytes or as a nursery aide unless they choose to do so, given the time commitment required for the choir. The con-firmation youth and their parents will participate in a Blessing Litany during the 10:30 AM worship on Sep-tember 20.
