Confirmation
As one grows in Christ, our Church also expects that those who have been baptized will make a mature reaffirmation of their baptismal vows and receive the laying of hands by a bishop to strengthen them in their journey as baptized Christians.
Anyone interested in being confirmed, received or reaffirmed should speak with the clergy person in their local congregation to begin the process of preparation.
We celebrate confirmation as a diocesan community, emphasizing the connection to the wider body of the diocese, the Episcopal Church, and the Anglican Communion.
Resources
Preparing for the Reaffirmation of Baptismal Vows: The COM’s approved the process to prepare Christians for confirmation, reception, and reaffirmation.
