Confirmation This Sunday

On Sunday, April 18, 2010 we will be celebrating Confirmation Sunday at both the Oakfield and Tabor churches. We have six individuals who are ready to affirm their baptismal vows, professing their Christian faith and taking on full membership in the United Methodist Church. At Tabor, Sarah Demler will be confirmed. At Oakfield, Morgan Post, Maddy Post, Hunter Godfroy, Buddy Godfory and Justin Holz will be confirmed.

Last night, we had our final meeting together. At that meeting, we shared some pizza! :-) Then, we went through the service so that they became a little bit more familiar with the role that they will play. I am having the Confirmands take a major role in doing the service. They will also be reading their Faith Statements for the congregation as well.

I am very proud of this group of Confirmands. They brought a lot of energy into each meeting. They showed a desire to learn. They showed growth in the faith and show a desire to continue that growth. They made Confirmation a lot more fun than I thought it would be ;)!

I am looking forward to this service and I hope you will be able to attend as well.

  1. Dear Jim, Do you know what date the confirmation in Tabor took place in 1995? I was confirmed on this date and would like to know the exact date?
    Many thanks
    Chris
