Preparing to take the journey of adulthood in the church is a major step. Starting in 5th grade we explore what it means to be a Christian and an Episcopalian, with the guidance of not just the teacher but also clergy and members of the greater community. This class meets prior to church with the expectation students will attend services.
Confirmation Class Youth & Adult Classes
Church members who are in 8th grade or older are invited to start the journey to Confirmation. Youth and Adult classes are held separately so please contact the church off for more information.
The Episcopal Church
The Episcopal Church welcomes all who worship Jesus Christ, in 111 dioceses and regional areas in 17 nations. The Episcopal Church is a member province of the worldwide Anglican Communion.
The mission of the church, as stated in the Book of Common Prayer’s catechism (p. 855), is “to restore all people to unity with God and each other in Christ.”
As part of that mission, we’re following Jesus into loving, liberating and life-giving relationship with God, with each other and with the earth as the Episcopal branch of the Jesus Movement. We seek every day to love God with our whole heart, mind and soul, and to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:36-40).
