Confirmation

We offer a confirmation class each year for 7th graders and above. This will be a ten week course leading up to Eastor. Please let Pastor Jeff or Pastor Robin know if you are interested.

About Confirmation. . .

What parents or guardians initiated in the baptism of a child, the child when they become a young adult confirms through the process of Confirmation. Confirmation is an opportunity for young adults to explore their faith - what it is they claim to believe. During this process the pastor or an individual designated by the pastor leads the young adult through the foundations of the Christian faith while exploring the traditions of The United Methodist Church and the Presbyterian Church U.S.A., as well as other denominations and religions. At the end of the Confirmation course, the young adult chooses to confirm and claim the baptism from their childhood. The young adult then becomes a full-member of Wharton United Community Church at St. John's and is offered opportunities to begin participating fully in the ministry of the church.
