SATURDAY, SEPT. 6th at PROCTER CENTER
You are warmly invited to this joyful and sacred celebration as members of our diocese, in the presence of Bishop White, affirm their faith through the sacramental rite of confirmation.
At confirmation, individuals claim those baptismal vows as their own, renewing their commitment to follow Christ and serve God’s mission in the world. This service also includes reception (for those confirmed in another tradition) and reaffirmation (for those who wish to renew their commitment).
Please come and show your support for these confirmands as they take this next step in their faith journey. Your presence will be a blessing!
Clergy are invited to vest and process wearing cassock and surplice, red stoles.*
See information below to register those seeking to participate in the service as a candidate for confirmation, reception, and reaffirmation.
*Corrected since the last notice.
NEW: Online Confirmation Class
Individuals seeking to be confirmed or received in The Episcopal Church are warmly invited to join the Rev. Olivia Hamilton, missioner for lifelong formation, for a six-part online preparation course. Together, we’ll use the wonderful text Walk in Love: Episcopal Beliefs and Practices by Scott Gunn and Melody Wilson Shobe as we explore the basics of the Christian faith, and how we live into our call to follow Jesus as members of The Episcopal Church in this time and place.
This course is intended to provide an opportunity for confirmation formation for those without access in their home congregations. This class is open to all candidates, regardless of age or whether they plan to be confirmed on September 6th.
The class will be held virtually on Monday nights from 6 – 7:15 pm, from July 21 through August 25. Click here to sign up.
