CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
Christian education is the responsibility of both the family and the Church. When a child is baptized, the parents make a covenant with God and the Church to teach their children the Lord’s Prayer, the Apostle’s Creed, and the 10 Commandments, to place in his/her hands the Holy Scriptures, and to provide for his/her education in the Christian faith.
Our children meet with their teachers during the sermon each Sunday in the classrooms downstairs.
CONFIRMATION CLASSES
CONFIRMATION CLASS involves a structured learning environment. Lutherans base their confirmation instruction on Luther’s Small Catechism. The oldest catechism still in use, Luther’s Small Catechism, teaches six essential areas of faith (“chief parts”). These include…
1) How Christians Live (The Ten Commandments)
2) Who God Is (The Apostles’ Creed)
3) How To Pray (The Lord’s Prayer)
4) How To Forgive And Be Forgiven (The Office Of The Keys
And Confession)
5) What Baptism Is (Holy Baptism)
6) What The Lord’s Supper Is And Does (The Lord’s Supper)
Anyone, child or adult, wishing to be confirmed in the Lutheran faith, please contact the church office to schedule an appointment with Pastor Dumke.
BIBLE STUDIES – Are held on Wednesdays at 10am in the library. Bible study on Wednesdays will begin again in September.
