Confirmation Class (Grades 9-12)
Meets Six Sundays in the Fall, 6:00 PM, Conference Room
Confirmation is the affirmation of baptism. Youth have an opportunity to confirm their faith through the Rite of Confirmation offered every Fall at Pilgrim. Confirmation is the acknowledgement of the presence and power of the Holy Spirit by both the individual and the faith community. Prior to Confirmation, a series of classes to foster deeper faith formation is offered with Rev. Wagner. The Rite of Confirmation is celebrated during a worship service and marks the beginning as an active member in the life and mission of the church, the body of Christ. A reception is hosted by the C.E. Team after worship. (excerpts from Affirming Faith, UCC 1996)
Young Adults
The Campus Ministry Task Force invites members of the MSU community - faculty, staff, and students - to Pilgrim for worship and fellowship. The task force offers several opportunities to get to know other students especially, including pizza nights at Columbo's, and a Parents Weekend reception. We also publish by email the Touchstone newsletter with topics of interest to the MSU community. To receive this newsletter and for more information about all our programs contact the church office (587-3690).
