Confirmation Class for our Youth
Picture
At Mount Calvary we use Luther's Small Catechism as a basis and outline to teach our young people (generally Grade 6 & 7 in the public school system) about their Christian faith. On Confirmation Sunday we celebrate their understanding of faith and their willingness to take on the privileges and responsibilities of the baptized life as they move into adult membership in the congregation.

To see the schedule go to our home page and click on the calendar.

The catechism is an essential part of any Christian’s library. Brief, clear summaries of God’s Word allow individuals and families alike to use the Small Catechism as a powerful tool and prayer book. Though the catechism was written by Martin Luther in 1529, its question and answer format provides Christians with a timeless guide book that is easy to use and applicable to all the various callings we have in life.

The Small Catechism explores the Six Chief Parts of Christian Doctrine: the Ten Commandments, the Apostles’ Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, the Sacrament of Holy Baptism, Confession, and the Sacrament of the Altar. It also includes daily prayers, a table of duties for Christians, and a guide for Christians to use as they prepare to receive Holy Communion.
