A PATHFINDER CONFIRMATION INTENSIVE

COMMIT is our one-year confirmation intensive. COMMIT is for students who recognize that they are imperfect followers of Jesus and who are also serious about making a greater commitment to walking with Jesus in their daily life. COMMIT is an optional faith development program that any student (8th-11th grade) can participate in if they desire to explore the greatest commandment, spiritual formation, and Luther’s six chief parts of the Christian faith. (The Apostles’ Creed, The Ten Commandments, Baptism, Confession & Absolution, The Lord’s Supper and Prayer)

COMMIT classes launch each calendar year in January and end in November with a special Rite of Confirmation worship service, where students publicly profess their faith in front of family, friends, and the church.

Three Seasons over one Calendar Year

Three Seasons over one Calendar Year

COMMIT classes launch each calendar year in January and end in November with a special Rite of Confirmation worship service, where students publicly profess their faith in front of family, friends, and the church. Throughout this year, there are three distinct seasons. We plan to hold a parent information meeting before the start of each season.

Spring

In the first season of COMMIT, students must participate in or complete the following activities: communion training, kickoff retreat, attend CORE (Sundays at 11am), serve on a team, write a reflection essay, and finish a commandment project.

Summer

In the second season, students should expect the following events and projects: attend Summer Summit (Sundays at 5:30pm), three message reflections, a day retreat, and projects related to the Apostles' Creed, baptism, and their life verse.

Fall

For the final season, COMMIT classes will meet on Sundays at 12:15pm. Additionally, students are expected to attend weekly worship, complete three message reflections, participate in Summit, serve on a team, and write their faith statement.
