About Head to Heart Ministry
The Word of Peace confirmation ministry is a dynamic ministry that prepares 6th, 7th, and 8th graders to connect faith to daily life, serve others, study Martin Luther’s catechism, and prepare students to reaffirm their baptism.
 
All confirmation students attend a large group session that includes music, games, skits, and a lesson taught by a pastor. Students also meet in small groups that are led by one adult mentor, one high school student mentor, and a group of 6 to 8 of their peers. These small groups are safe places for students to discuss faith, life, and the weekly lesson.
 
Each month each small group participates in a fellowship event--a time to have fun and get to know one another. Or, they participate in a servant event--a time to serve others in our community. Examples of servant events include serving food in local food shelves, playing games with nursing home residents, making care packages for men and women in the military, making cards for homebound and ill congregation members, etc.
 
Your home is the best place to incubate your child’s faith. However, while your kids are at Word of Peace we’re delighted to share God’s good news using Dr. Rich Melheim’s Faith Inkubator curriculum, Head to Heart.

Common questions...

What if my child did not start confirmation in 6th grade, can they still participate? 

Absolutely!  Call Pastor Rick at 763-496-2400 to arrange the details of registration.

Do I need to be a member of Word of Peace to go come to confirmation classes? 

Absolutely not!  Everyone is welcome.

Do I need to be baptized to take part in the confirmation program?  No. 

If your child decides to complete the three year confirmation program, they should be baptized before they are confirmed.
