Confirmation

Confirmation is the sacramental rite in which the baptized Christian expresses a mature commitment to Christ, and receives strength from the Holy Spirit through prayer and the laying on of hands by a bishop. (Book of Common Prayer, p. 860)

At Saint Michael, Confirmation classes are available for Youth and Adults. Youth Confirmation is available each school year for students in 8th grade and older. Adult Confirmation preparation is provided by the new Fall Saint Michael 101 offering; contact Beth Igoe for additional details.
