The confirmation class is a preparatory class for membership into
the body of Christ and in particular into this congregation of the
United Methodist Chirch. This class is offered generally to
those in the 6th grade but is open to all. The class is based
on the study of the "Claim the Name" curriculum that
touches on Methodist history, doctrine, stands on social issues, and
the responsibilities of being a full member in Christ's Church.
The Leader of this class is Mike Christley and they meet during the
Sunday School hour 10:00 to 11:00 am on Sundays.
Other activities include a confirmation retreat, visits to various
Methodist organizations in Houston and other activities aimed at
learning about the Methodist church and membership into the
Methodist church.
Each member of this class is assigned a mentor that will aid in the
introduction to membership into the body of Christ and into this
congregation of the Methodist Church.
