About Redeemer


Confirmation

With a strong interest in young people and Christian education. Redeemer has developed a unique confirmation instruction program. It is called "Individualized Confirmation." When youth of the congregation begin the 6th grade, they are expected to enroll in the program. Those enrolled meet once a week in the Family Education Center and study for 1-2 hours. If an individual student comes once a week during the school year, he/she will complete the prescribed course of study in 3 years. Since the program is geared for the individual and the individual's needs, the student progresses at his/her own rate. The professional staff and trained lay people are always on hand for further instruction, discussions and general supervision.

When a student has completed the prescribed course of study, he/she is elegible for communicant membership in the congregation by going through the rite of Confirmation. This rite is usually held on the last Sunday of April.
