Summer confirmation instruction will be offered for students from St. John Lutheran Church who are entering the 7th & 8th grades. The following classes will meet Wednesdays and Thursdays from 1:30 - 3:30 p.m. on the following dates:

June 20 & 21: Old Testament - section 1
June 27 & 28: Old Testament - section 2
July 18 & 19: New Testament - section 1
July 25 & 26: New Testament - section 2

All of these classes will be repeated during the school year. Students who complete a class during the summer do not take it again during the school year.

Students are required to attend monthly mentor group meetings throughout the school year.

WORSHIP NOTES - Students are expected to worship regularly with an adult. We believe when a student worships with an adult who is significant in his or her life, faith becomes more meaningful and more relevant. To assist in their understanding of worship, we require that seventeen worship notes be completed by the end of the school year. Of those seventeen, ten are “regular” worship notes, five are the Taking Faith Home check-in sheet and two are from Lent. The notes are intended to focus the attention of each student on various aspects of worship life.

Notes need to be signed by a parent or guardian. The parent/guardian should also help the student understand the questions on the worship note form and discuss their written responses. Forms are available on the Confirmation bulletin board in the Commons Area or on the website.

**Students attending confirmation classes at St. John Lutheran Church must have a parent or a designated adult sponsor who is a member of St. John Lutheran Church. If a confirmation student is not baptized, a parent should contact a pastor about baptism.

**Students who attended Early Confirmation - Participation in the Early Confirmation program has prepared students for Junior High Confirmation. It does not exempt them from completing the Junior High program.
