Confirmation
Confirmation marks the point in the Christian journey at which adults or children decide to affirm for themselves the faith into which they were baptised. This is an important decision, so you may wish to take this opportunity to discuss with us whether you feel ready at this stage to take this significant step.
2021 Confirmation Candidates
|
Last year the Rt Rev'd Dr Graham Tomlin, Bishop of Kensington confirmed 33 children and adult candidates from St Mary Abbots and St Phillips as well as a single candidate from Christchurch Kensington, St Mary the Boltons, Christchurch Fulham and St Simon, Shepherds Bush on Tuesday 22nd April 2021.
The service, despite Covid restrictions limiting the number of people attending, was beautiful and the candidates seem to have been deeply moved by the experience. |
The preparation sessions are informal and the group discusses various areas of worship and religion, taking you on a journey to draw closer to God and an understanding of your own faith. This year confirmation will take place on Thursday 9th June. If you would be interested in confirmation please contact the Vicarage Office HERE.
