Our Prayer Book (The Book of Common Prayer) describes confirmation in this way: “Confirmation is the rite in which we express a mature commitment to Christ, and receive strength from the Holy Spirit through prayer and the laying on of hands by a bishop. It is required of those to be confirmed that they have been baptized, are sufficiently instructed in the Christian Faith, are penitent for their sins, and are ready to affirm their confession of Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord."
On Sunday, April 10, 2011, our Bishop, the Most Rev. Robert Duncan confirmed 11 candidates from Jonah’s Call: Maggie Dahl, Mark Dahl, Jill King, Josh Moyer, Elisabeth Moyer, Thad Pellegrini, CJ Pellegrini, Jay Roszman, Rachel Roszman, Elaina Sadd and Emma Slocum.
During this time, he also reaffirmed Liz Delgado and Linda Stewart.
