CONFIRMATION AT UNITY Presbyterian Church
with Pastor Linda
Peters
Here
is my confirmation plan for this year, 2013.
Meet for an hour/half every Thursday from 4:00 – 5:30 beginning April 11
– May 2. Confirmation is very different than just joining a church for a
person who has already confirmed their faith. I want confirmands to be
well informed of what they are being asked to do. I want them to make an
informed decision to join the church
of Jesus Christ Mission
Bible is an in-depth look
at how the Word of God is an integral part of our lives, NOT just our
faith. Mostly we will look at the major stories of God's call to
serve: Abraham and Sara, Moses, Isaiah, Mary and the Disciples.
Devotional Life: Covers our prayer
life and worship. Confirmands will be
expected to serve in worship as: acolytes, greeters, and or liturgists.
Mission: I would love
for any confirmand to go on a mission trip. There are resources with PYOCA
(see: /www.camppyoca.org),
Synod events or with our denomination's national and international work, but we
can also visit local missions.
The
major assignment is to write a statement of faith and then share that with
Session before confirmation in worship.
One
of the challenges but also a joy for small congregations is confirmation
is often a one on one experience. Contact
me if you have any questions: Linda Jo Peters, 299-2206
