What is Confirmation?
United Methodists use the term “confirmation” to mark the first time a baptized Christian publicly “confirms” their intention to live the vows of the baptismal and membership covenant and so becomes a professing member of the local congregation and The United Methodist Church.
At Asbury UMC, Confirmation is a Milestone, a special event designed to support sixth graders (as well as seventh and eighth graders) where they are and help parents navigate the teenage years.

CONFIRMATION 2024-2025
Confirmation is a year long journey that begins with a Covenant Service on August 11, 2024. Confirmands meet weekly during the 9:45 a.m. Sunday school hour. During these classes, students are encouraged to examine their own thoughts on faith and God as a young adult. On Sunday, May 18, 2025, they have the opportunity to be confirmed in their faith and become full members of the church.
Interested in signing up for the next class? You have come to the right place! The cost to register is $75. Each confirmation student will get a Confirm Tote Bag which includes a Confirm Study Bible, Confirm Journal, and class t-shirt (provided at Spring Retreat.)
