Welcome TO CONFIRM'21 confirmation retreats

The Foundation For Christian Formation leads a series of weekend retreats for young confirmands of the United Methodist Church and for the adult leaders and mentors that accompany these youth on their confirmation journey. Since 2006, the Foundation has led over 100 confirmation events attended by 900-plus churches with more than 15,000 participants.

FCF Confirm events will help confirmands claim their identity as Christ-people in Christ-community, the Church, as they move toward claiming for themselves the faith claimed on their behalf at their baptism. In addition, these retreats are designed to engage and impact the adults who accompany the confirmands on their journey. Program features include:

Participatory and passionate worship led by the Confirm team in the midst of "holy space" and altar preparation (visual word) created by confirmands.
Interactive workshops focused on deepening discipleship and developing spiritual practices like prayer, service, practicing the Presence of God, and devotional Bible study.
Experiencing and understanding the sacraments of Baptism and Communion.
Our signature stole making process created in small groups through which confirmands and adults record highlights of their faith journey and witness to their emerging faith in their own words and symbols.
The culminating "service of ordination" - receiving their stoles in a succession of disciples as a sign of both their calling and commitment as part of the "ministry of all Christians."
