Confirmation for Winter/Spring 2024
1st Sunday evening of every month, from 4-7 pm
(Jan. 5, Feb. 2, Mar. 2, Apr. 6, May 4)
At Good Shepherd, Confirmation is the practice of deliberately studying and deepening one’s faith. We learn about the history of the church, the stories and ways of reading The Bible, and the practices of the Lutheran expression of Christianity. In addition to learning, Confirmation is focused on building relationships and community that cultivate a life of service. It is open to all youth entering 6th grade and above, and is also open to any adults who wish to explore and expand their understanding of faith!
Confirmation will be meeting on the 1st Sunday evening of every month, from 4 - 7 pm (Jan. 5, Feb. 2, Mar. 2, Apr. 6. Mar. 4). During each session there will be time for lessons and discussions, conversation and reflection, creative expressions of faith, and (of course) dinner! Dinner will take place at 5:30 pm in Crary Hall on each Confirmation night, and all are welcome to enjoy the Community Meal!
If you would like to participate in the Confirmation program this season, please let Pastor Bergen know by sending a message to bergen@gsolympia.org. This will allow them to prepare materials for you. All are welcome to attend lessons and meal regardless of formal participation in the Confirmation program. Once again, just let Pastor Bergen know so we can prepare food accordingly!
