Confirmation 2023


  • Gainesville First UMC 2780 Thompson Bridge Road Gainesville United States (map)

Classes start January 29 at 9:30am

Confirmation is a powerful experience where students actively engage in transitioning toward a faith of their own. Open to all students in 7th and 8th grades, our hope is that students develop a deeper understanding of the Christian faith and what it means to be in the Methodist tradition. 

Classes will be held over 7 weekends, beginning January 29, 2023 at 9:30am. The final class will be held on March 26, 2023. Confirmation Services on April 16, 2023. 

Once Confirmation Classes are complete, each student will participate in a personal discussion with Ric Clark, Director of Student Ministries, to determine next steps toward Confirmation Services.  These discussions will be scheduled and held at the church, over Facetime or ZOOM. We’ll choose whatever works best for the student and their schedules.   

**Students are required to attend all classes to be eligible for Confirmation on April 16, 2023**
