Our confirmation program at St. John is a two-year journey for 7th and 8th graders, and this year we’re diving into the theme, “What is the Bible?”

We’ve got some exciting retreats lined up, so be sure to mark your calendars:

• Retreat 1: September 29 🗓️
• Retreat 2: November 17 🗓️
• Retreat 3: February 16 🗓️
• Retreat 4: April 13 🗓️

In addition to these retreats, each student will complete 16 sermon notes  and write a personal faith statement  each year. We also encourage everyone to experience Bible Camp  at least once and to jump into as many Youth Ministry events as possible. And of course, we’ll cap off the journey with Confirmation Sunday 2025 on April 27, where our 8th graders will share their faith statements at the 10:30 Service—what a special day that will be! 🎉✝️

Important Reminders:

• Stay Connected: If you haven’t already, please download and log into the Church App by MinistryOne 📱 and the YouVersion Bible 📲. These tools will keep you informed and engaged.
• Get Ready to Sing: We’ll be learning the “Gotta Know the Books” song by Shai Linne this year—take a listen ahead of time! 🎧🎵 It’s catchy and fun, and will help us all learn the Books of the Bible together. 📚 Here is the Youtube Link: Bible Books Song
