Confirmation
​
Confirmation is the opportunity to make a mature public affirmation of one’s faith, commit to the responsibilities of one’s Baptism, and receive the laying-on of hands by the bishop.

For 8th graders and high school students.
​
What is Reception?
If you have already been confirmed in the Roman Catholic, Orthodox, or Lutheran tradition, the bishop will “receive” you into the Episcopal Church since we recognize the Confirmation rites of these other traditions.
