SUMMARY:Diocesan Youth Confirmation Program: 2026
DESCRIPTION:Sundays\, February 8 through April 19\, 7:00 pm  \nWelcome to our youth confirmation program! This is our fifth year offering this program\, and this time we have invited the youth of the Diocese of Spokane to join us as well. Together\, we will explore and learn about the Episcopal faith with the option of participating in a confirmation service at Cathedral Day\, April 25\, 2026. \nAll current high school youth are welcome to participate. (*If your child is in middle school\, and is interested in the program\, please contact Naomi Cavaliere directly.) \nOn Sunday evenings\, starting February 8 through April 19\, from 7:00 – 8:30 p.m. we will be working our way through a curriculum called “Confirm Not Conform.” This curriculum is designed to encourage and invite youth to ask the hard questions and grapple with their own understanding of what they believe and why. Facilitated small group break-outs will provide time for conversation with peers of the same age. \nOur Sunday evening meetings will be virtual via Zoom. Over the course of this10-week class\, we will have different guest teachers who will lead the lessons and conversations. These teachers are clergy\, lay leaders\, and faith formation staff from across both Dioceses. \nFor more information\, and to register\, please click on this link: https://DioYouthConfirmation2026.eventbrite.com
