Confirmation

Everyone who confesses me before others, I will also confess before my Father who is in heaven.
— Matthew 10:32

Why Confirmation?

Confirmation whether for adults or youths, is when an individual has completed a study of the Bible and the teachings in the catechism and desires the following three things:

  • To become a confirmed member at St. Peter Lutheran Church

  • To publicly profess their faith and their commitment to a life of faith

  • To receive the Lord’s Supper with our congregation

Youth Confirmation at St. Peter

At St. Peter, we have a pre-confirmation program in which most of our youths who wish to be confirmed participate. A shepherd knows his sheep and his sheep know him. Time is God’s Word together is the best way to form a bond of trust between the pastor and member. This also begins instilling the habit of gathering weekly around God’s Word outside of the Sunday services and the school day.

Youths who are in at least 5th grade can begin the program. Anyone above 8th grade can discuss with Pastor Dunn the best path to confirmation and membership.

During their time in our pre-confirmation class, one of the most important habits to develop is regular attendance at Sunday Worship. As they grow and mature in their faith, we expect students and their families to place a high priority on worshipping regularly and becoming involved in the life of the congregation.


Pre-Confirmation Registration

Our 2024-2025 class will be on Sundays from 1-2:30 pm and will begin on September 15.
