Guide To Writing a Faith Story

At the conclusion of your Confirmation years, you have the opportunity to share your faith story. Your life has been influenced by parents, family, friends, other adults, Sunday School classes, youth group experiences, etc. Take some time over the year to think about how these life experiences have affected your faith.

Your Statement of Faith Story should focus on your faith journey. Be sure to include:
• Your experiences through the church with your family
• Those who have been influential and encouraging during your faith journey
• What your baptism means to you
• Who Jesus is in your life
• What Jesus' death and resurrection means for you
• What Jesus' death and resurrection means for creation
• How being a Christian makes a difference in how you live
• The importance of Holy Communion in your everyday life
• How important prayer is to you
• How you see yourself serving Christ in your life

There is so much more you can share. As an individual, think about what is important for you to include. These papers will not be judged, but they will be discussed. Be honest and truthful. Include struggles you still have.

Your story should be no less than one page in length, single-spaced typed, using no larger than 12 point font.

The paper is due (to the sermon note box, of course!) no later than October 5. We'll sit down to discuss your paper in the two weeks after they're due.
