Summer Edition of "Mission Possible" Now Posted |
Question: What is one way congregations can work together to build up the body of Christ, be they small, large, or in-between?
Answer: Confirmation Camp!
Several confirmation camps operate on the territory of our synod. These joint ventures by congregations (20-30 each) work to strengthen the faith formation of our youth. Cooperatively, congregations can offer a week-long camp experience to reinforce what confirmation is about; sharing resources, rostered and lay leaders, and camp staff.
