Today, we celebrate significant faith milestones in the lives of several congregants.

Confirmation at FCC is a rite of passage for students who have completed the Foundations Course and desire to publicly affirm their faith.  Confirmation is intentionally linked to infant baptism and is a significant step for those who were baptized as infants.

We will also be celebrating with several who have professed faith in Jesus Christ but have not yet been baptized. The sacrament of holy baptism is commanded by Jesus as a sign of the Christian life found in Christ Jesus under the authority of the Triune God.

Finally, we will be celebrating Affirmation of the Baptismal Covenant.  This is for individuals who were baptized as infants but who were not nurtured or discipled in the church and who may have wandered away from the Christian faith.  This service offers an opportunity for a clear expression of personal appropriation of faith, while at the same time allowing individuals to express thanks for God's faithfulness in their lives, the beginning of which was signified in their baptism.

We celebrate these faith milestones with heartfelt gratitude for what the Holy Spirit has been doing among us.
