At the conclusion of confirmation instruction, these young people will make a public profession of their faith during a church service. The rite of confirmation is a time of celebration for the congregation as it receives the confession of these young people and affirms and encourages them in the continuation of their faith journey. In addition, after completion of confirmation instruction, these young people will begin the Sacrament of communion.
