Confirmation is a time for 8th graders to explore the Christian faith and begin to make decisions about how they will live out that faith. Considered a milestone in life, McFarlin takes Confirmation seriously, as we challenge our students to grow closer to God through Jesus Christ, recogniziing they are created in God's image, understanding the power of the Holy Spirit at work in their lives, and realizing they are on this earth of a purpose and a reason.
Confirmation begins on Sunday, January 5, 2020 with a gathering of parents and students. Confirmation Sunday will be Sunday, April 26, 2020.
An important part of Confirmation will be the Confirmation Retreat, which will take place April 24 - 25, 2018 at Bridgeport Camp in North Texas (just west of Denton).
To help cover the costs associated with Confirmation, we ask for a donation of $75. This includes the cost of the retreat. Scholarship money is available. You can make your payment to Austin Leeviraphan in cash or check, or online at https://mcfarlinumc.org/online-payments/
In addition, because we think that missions are so important to living out the life of a Follower of Christ, so we hope that Confirmands will be part of the Spring Break Mission.
We encourage students to be part of Awakening (Sunday School) on Sunday mornings, 9:40am and 10:40am, and for students and their families to attend worship on Sunday mornings. This helps round out the Confirmation experience.
