Grade level dinners are an important part of youth ministry at FPC. We're a big church, and these monthly grade-level gatherings help to create smaller communities within our big community.
Confirmation GLDs are the backbone of the Confirmation experience. Each month, we have dinner together, spend some time in small groups (these groups are assigned and stay the same during the year), and then we have a program to
explore their faith and claim it as their own, deepen their relationship with God and discover what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ and part of the Presbyterian tradition
. FPC pastors and staff lead these programs, and it's our hope that these conversations will encourage 8th graders to reflect on what they believe and how their lives reflect their beliefs.
Don't forget to bring your Confirmation Binders!
Here's an overview of a typical Confirmation GLD evening:
6:00 - 6:45 p.m. Welcome activity, dinner, and fellowship
6:45 - 7:45 p.m. Announcements, check-in with your Confirmation small group,
program, and closing notebook* time
