Confirmation Classes

Older elementary and middle school youth are provided an opportunity to learn about the United Methodist Church, its history, traditions, liturgy and gain knowledge of being part of Christ's church. Classes are conducted by the pastor for several weeks. The culmination of this training is when the class makes their profession of faith in the worship service and is baptized.
