We had Jake’s first confirmation gathering this past week. And once again, I thought about my confirmation, a million years ago, and John III’s confirmation just last year.
I remember the discussion that John and I had regarding this work, since it is a three year commitment. What I shared with my husband was the importance of the experience of faith building at this point in life.
Confirmation has changed so much since I went through it. No more rote memorization or sitting before the board of elders for a quiz. Now, it’s all about building that personal relationship with Jesus.
I am excited to make this journey with Jake. Even more so since I have committed to being a guide.
I am thankful that John had the experience with J3…
