Confirmation is the time in a student’s life when they claim faith for themselves. Through Confirmation, students have the opportunity to explore their faith by asking questions, digging deeper, serving others, and learning more about God and the Church. They will journey alongside adult mentors and participate in a small group of their peers. At the end of Confirmation, they will be invited to make a public commitment to Christ and become a full member of our church community. You do not have to be a member at Church of the Resurrection to register. Confirmation at Resurrection is open to students in 8th-12th grade.
Want more Information? Reach out to Blake Thomas, Director of Student Ministries, at blake.thomas@cor.org.
Students must be baptized before they can be confirmed. If they have not been baptized, please indicate so on the registration form, and Blake Thomas will reach out to you directly with more information.
Overall, we want confirmation to be a life-giving experience for you and for your family. We want to remain flexible and connect with you if you are running into issues. Please let us know if you are concerned about these expectations or have any questions by connecting with Blake Thomas, blake.thomas@cor.org.
