Confirmation

Confirmation - Sunday 14th June 2009

Please pray for those who have stated that wish to be confirmed this year. The list so far :

Christine Cullen, Andrew Gradwell, David Gaden & Emma Farr

It is the Church Of England ruling that only those who are confirmed can take communion.

The reason for the ruling is that I Corinthians 11 talks of trouble if people take communion “unworthily” and the church in earliest years thought it wise to teach people the Christian faith before they were allowed to take communion for this reason. For us at Christ Church Alpha is the course which satisfies these conditions. If you have been through Alpha or are going through Alpha at Christ Church you can be confirmed

The confirmation service in Christ Church will take place this year on Sunday 20th June at the 6pm service. If you would like to be confirmed please complete the green form at the back of Christ Church which is also available from your service leader or Reception. Please forward to Reception on completion
