Rite Of Confirmation: This morning three of our youth will publicly confess their faith in God and especially Jesus Christ as their Savior in the Rite of Confirmation. The three youth and their confirmation verses are as follows:

> Tyler Hendrix Gallmann Bennett – Psalm 55:22
> Lauren Victoria Bledsoe – St. Matthew 6:33
> Rachel Elizabeth Fahs – Acts 16:31

We praise God that He has increased their knowledge and strengthened their faith through their study of the basics of His Word. It is our sincere prayer that they will regularly and faithfully attend worship, hear, read, and study God’s Word, and partake of Holy Communion so that by the work of the Holy Spirit they will continue to mature in the Christian faith and life.
