Confirmed in a Faithful Community

Couverture
Saint Mary's Press, 2006 - 144 pages
The third edition of Confirmed in a Faithful Community includes major revisions and updates, and it carries with it the firm conviction that Confirmation preparation for adolescents can be theologically sound, developmentally appropriate, and pedagogically exciting. The Coordinator's Manual has three newly created retreats, a candidate-and-sponsor orientation session, more detailed specifics regarding planning and preparing for the rite, and a chapter on ways to involve the parish community in the process.
