From The Pastor..

Last month we had the privilege to confirm five young people and welcome them into church membership. One of the things emphasized in Confirmation is that being confirmed is not the end of the journey. It is just one milestone in a long faith walk.  It is the sincere hope that the confirmation process equips the young people so that they can faithfully grow in better following Jesus. However, that is not something they are supposed to do on their own.
