LOOKING FOR STUDENT AND ADULT LEADERS

Serving creates a deep sense of ownership, expands faith, and increases a relationship with others. If you feel like you want more out of faith, then you are invited to be a leader.

If you have questions or concerns about serving, or anything else with youth group, please feel free to contact Tyler Griffith.

CONFIRMATION (7-11TH GRADE)

Confirmation has always been a lasting tradition to explore God’s Word and the importance of living a Christian life. A major focus for teenagers is learning to think for themselves and develop their identity. Confirmation sits at the cusp of this stage of life. The end goal of Confirmation is for students to learn, reflect, and affirm their faith while recognizing that following Jesus is a lifelong journey filled with these things. Confirmation is not the end, rather it is the beginning of this relationship with Jesus. At Crossview, confirmation is meant to propel students into the next step of their faith journey.

We value confirmation as an opportunity for students in 7th-11th grade to go through an intentional two years of discipleship consisting of five key components. Students are welcome to join at any time and will finish confirmation after they complete:

Attending weekly large group teachings;
Reading through and discussing the big picture of God’s story twice a month with a mentor;
Participating in our confirmation retreats;
Serving at church and in our community with others in your class, and
Completing a small paper and pastoral interview about your confirmation experience.
