Confirmation Classes 2022-2023

Students have TWO options for class times this year. Because of the exciting, active construction project at CTR we will be slightly creative with our course schedule this year.
Class options are:
Sunday School from 9:30-10:30 am for 6th grade – 8th grade
CTR-U on Wednesday nights at 5:30 PM

Students eligible for classes may attend one or both class time offerings because each class will be a different course each lasting differing lengths of time. Rather than a set confirmation class schedule each individual student and their family will be able to build their class time around their individual needs and time constraints. This means the length of time a student takes to complete all the requirements will vary for each and no longer be a set number of years as it was in the past.

Please contact DCE Suzanne and she will send you the appropriate books or make them available for you to pick up at CTR. 
Thank you for your support, and please keep your children and the ministry of Christ the Redeemer in your prayers.

SUNDAY AM CLASS

9:30-10:30 AM in the Jr High Classroom.
Please bring your workbook, folder, and Faith Alive Bible.
