A prayer for our Confirmands
Our 2010 Confirmation class kicked off this weekend, and we have a great group of kids signed up! I think we have about 65 young men and women who will be a part of this year’s class. These 6th graders will be gathering each Sunday afternoon for lunch, a time of teaching from one of our pastors, and small group discussion with their peers and our confirmation mentors. Confirmation will conclude with a weekend retreat and the Confirmation service where they will be baptized if they have not already been baptized, profess their faith in Christ, and become full members of our church family.
It’s an exciting time in their lives and in the life of our church.
This weekend in all our services we distributed cards that had a special prayer we are encouraging every member of our church to pray over the next 10-12 weeks for these students. If you were not able to be in church this weekend, here is that prayer. Thanks for lifting up these special young men and women during this important time!
Lord, I thank you for the young men and women participating in Confirmation. In this time, I pray that you would reveal to them your love and grace at work in their lives. Guide them, Lord, as they confirm their faith in Christ and commit their lives to membership in your church. AMEN.
