Students are expected to complete:

• 20 hours of community service
• 25 weeks of worship feedback
• 3 Confirmation conversations with the pastor
• One retreat and three ‘day away’ events led by the pastor

There are opportunities for make-up should a student need to miss an event, this work can be discussed with the Pastor.

For parents, there is also a Bible Study and Class that patterns after the confirmation class so that parents can study along with their students. Parents are also asked to attend 4 parent informational meetings where they will be kept up to date on their student’s progress.
