Confirmation Registration ENDS TODAY!

We are so excited to begin the Confirmation journey with our 6th grade students this year! Confirmation is a special time for students to learn about their faith, connect with new friends, and ask questions to their mentors in a small group setting. This year’s Confirmation program will look different than in year’s past as we try to best accommodate the busy schedules of our students, parents, and mentors. Once a month beginning on October 6, we will meet from 6-7pm in the Thrive Assembly Hall for a lesson from one of our clergy, activities, and discussion.

Price: $125

Thrive Mask Policy

To help students reduce the number of close contact exposures, the Board of Trustees will continue require the use of face masks at all Thrive Student Ministries indoor events (including Sunday school, Thrive at Five, and Wednesday Prayer Breakfast / groups, retreats, etc.) – for both students and those adults assisting them effective September 8. Masking had previously been required for all student ministry bus transports, but it will now be extended more broadly.
