Confirmation Service

Date: Wednesday 12 June 2024
Time: 7 pm
Location: Canon Jones Memorial Chapel

Churchie students in Year 9 and above are invited to express interest in taking part in the sacrament of Confirmation.

All students in Year 9 have been learning about the Christian faith and confirmation during their RE work this term. Confirmation is an opportunity for people to make a decision about following the way of Jesus and the Christian faith. Many people are baptised as children when parents and godparents promise to raise their children in the Christian faith. Confirmation is when young people and adults make these promises for themselves. Bishop John Roundhill will join us for our Confirmation Service and ask God’s Holy Spirit to give each candidate strength and commitment to live God’s way. Confirmation is one step on the lifelong journey of faith and is an important part of the Anglican tradition.

Sisters from any school are welcome to be Confirmed with their brothers.

Please invite family and friends. They are welcome to support and attend this service, which will be followed by light refreshments.

Please complete the Confirmation Application JotForm to express interest in learning more about confirmation. If the candidate has not yet been baptised, this will occur during the Confirmation Service. Please note: a separate form is required for each candidate to enter the necessary details for each person.

Please contact The Rev’d Sharon Mitchell if you have any questions or for further information at sharon.mitchell@churchie.com.au.
