6th - 8th Grade Confirmation
by Deaconess Katie Freund
​
We've spent the last year intensively reviewing how we structure confirmation classes and are making changes to our program for students in 6th, 7th, or 8th grade.
Rather than expecting a commitment of three years from each student, instead, they will be asked to fully commit to six weeks and the orientation session for a total of seven weeks. Families can choose which year (or grade level) is best for their child(ren), and there will be a fall and spring session every year to choose from. Both the students and their parents or guardians will sign a participation contract agreeing that attendance at all six sessions is mandatory. Each session will be at Holy Cross on Sunday evenings, with food provided.
​
Choose one 6-week session, either in the fall or spring.
