Confirmation Parents
Confirmation has been such a gift so far this year! Your young people are amazing!
Just a quick reminder that regular attendance in worship is an expectation of our confirmation students. When they're worshiping, they are asked to please fill out a "Whispers & Wonderings" to turn in after worship. Those can be found next to the Children & Youth Board.
Contact
