Are you seeking for something more out of your spiritual life?
If so, then take the next step in your spiritual journey here at St. Thomas: Confirmation.
Confirmation is a sacramental rite in which candidates “express a mature commitment to Christ, and receive strength from the Holy Spirit through prayer and the laying on of hands by a bishop” (BCP, p. 860).
It is both a public affirmation of your faith and a public commitment to live up to the responsibilities of your baptism.
Consider it a way for you to stand before God and St. Thomas to say, “With God’s help, I will better serve God and God’s people.”
On Sunday, May 26, Bishop Wayne Smith will confirm potential candidates during our 10am service. If interested, sign up at the back table for our upcoming three-week Confirmation classes.
During our time together, you will:
- Understand the basics of Christianity
- Explore and reflect upon your faith journey
- Discern what God wants out of you, and
- Learn ways to proclaim the Gospel by simply living your life
Confirmation classes take place Sunday, May 5 through May 19, following the 10am service. Sandwiches and a drink will be provided. The deadline for signup is Sunday, April 28, 2019.
