Confirmation Dinner/Rehearsal - Foyer
Saturday, April 20, 2024, 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
Confirmation is an opportunity for our sixth graders to spend time together exploring what it means to be disciples of Jesus Christ and deepening their connections with God, people and their God-given purpose. Confirmands are joined in their faith exploration by parents, teachers and Faith Partners. At the end of their Confirmation year, Confirmands who have not previously been baptized may choose to be baptized. Those who have been baptized may choose to affirm their faith. Confirmands may also decide they are not ready to take either of those steps yet.
Confirmation meets on Sunday evenings from 5-6:30 p.m., January 23-March 6, 2022.
For more information, please see the Frequently Asked Questions below or email .
During the Confirmation year, students learn about what it means to be a United Methodist Christian. We focus on the vows that the Confirmands will be asked on Confirmation Sunday. Other lessons include topics such as church history, worship, sacraments, the Trinity and grace.
Faith Partners serve as mentors to our sixth graders, commit to a one-on-one relationship with a student and attend Confirmation one Sunday evening per month.
Faith Partners must be a member of FUMC Hurst and attend worship regularly. They must also be Ministry Safe trained.
Faith Partners are not expected to have all the answers. They are expected to be willing to ask questions and to grow in their faith along with their Confirmand.
If you are interested in being a Faith Partner, please email .
We offer an online Confirmation class. It runs concurrently with our 6th grade class (usually September- early May). However, Confirmation is not required for one to join the United Methodist Church. We also offer other opportunities for adults to learn about the United Methodist Church and FUMC Hurst.
If you are interested in one of these classes or joining FUMC Hurst, please email . If you are a youth, please contact for more information about joining FUMC Hurst.
