On November 23, 2025, St. Paul’s had 4 Confirmands complete their Affirmation of Faith process

At St. Paul’s, Confirmation is a multi-year learning process in which those seeking to be confirmed in their trinitarian faith learn about the basic tenants of the faith including understanding the Bible (God’s Words speaking in the Old Testament and the New Testament), the Lord’s Prayer, the Creeds, the Ten Commandments, the Greatest Commandment, Service Life, Worship Life and Sacramental Life (living out baptism, communion, confession and forgiveness).

Multi-year Confirmation - good for everyone!

The time is right to join the Confirmation program (on the way to Affirming Faith) when the confirmand is eager to learn and grow. Like Baptism, achieving the growth for the ritual milestone of Confirmation is neither age-related nor age-restricted. Lifelong faith-based learning is to be seen on a continuum with markable moments along life’s way typically from cradle roll to final commendation at the end of life. Sunday School learning, and worship attendance for younger children creates a key but not required foundation upon which a successful confirmation program is built.

Confirmation Assignment 1: Find someone who has a faith life that you admire and find out what their favourite Bible Verse is. If they are open, ask them why this is their favourite verse. You can Google Pr. Karen’s verse if you need a hint. Pr. Karen’s Bible Verse gives shape to her whole life.

Confirmation Assignment 2: let’s talk together about what is in our Bibles!Let’s look up some passages together beginning with the one’s people told you about. You may ask one of last year’s Sr. Confirmands what Bible Verse they chose and why. Maybe they want to join us for our conversation.
