Students grades 7 and above who are interested in exploring the journey to confirmation at St. Mark’s are encouraged join us September 10 from 4-7 PM for a kick-off event and activity with Cornerstone Youth.
Please register your students below for this exciting exploration of faith together with peers and Fellow Travelers (mentors).
Fellow Travelers: Our students need faithful adult mentors to traverse this journey alongside them. Please consider being part of this important time for our youth!
Parent Meeting: Please plan to attend a brief parent meeting on August 27th at 5:00 PM.
Questions? Contact Pastor Karla at kelliott@stmarkscarmel.org.
Student Photo Upload
As part of the introduction on Confirmation Sunday, we’ll play a “then and now” slideshow/video of the confirmation students. Please provide a few pictures of your son/daughter as a baby or toddler for the video. Studio pictures are fine, but casual or fun pictures are even better!
