[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I comprehend your disappointment but I think you are placing way too much weight on confirmation. Declining confirmation now isn't a rejection of the church, nor will getting confirmed now tie them to the church (especially if it's done while their hearts aren't in it).[/b] [/quote] I was confirmed in the Episcopal Church at 17 and have been active in the church my entire life. My sister chose not to be confirmed. She now teaches Sunday School and is a regular churchgoer with her children. She still has no plans for conformation, but the only thing that means is that she can't be on the vestry. I have told my children that baptism was my choice, confirmation is theirs. My teenager shows no interest in confirmation, but is active in her youth group. I'm happy that she find sworth in being connected to the church community.[/quote]
