The season of Confirmation is here and our hearts are full!

Young confirmands across India are stepping forward in faith — making a conscious, heartfelt promise to live a life guided by God and His gospel. Confirmation is a beautiful commitment to walk with Christ, grounded in personal conviction and divine love. 

This important milestone is marked with a Confirmation Certificate and a heartfelt letter from our Chief Apostle Jean-Luc Schneider, shared below.

Dear confirmands,

You are about to make a commitment to obey and serve Christ. You can be sure that this is the best decision you could ever make. By following Christ, you will never go astray. When you serve Him, you are guaranteed never to be disappointed.

The Lord will take care of you. And we, your brothers and sisters, will be there to support you. At this solemn moment, the congregation joins you in saying to God:

“Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness” (Psalm 143: 10).

Together we still have so many beautiful things to learn! I wish you great blessing and much joy in the Church and send you, dear confirmands, my most heartfelt greetings.

 - Jean-Luc Schneider

We echo the words of our Chief Apostle and say to every confirmand: You are not alone. We walk this journey together, guided by faith, purpose, and joy.

Congratulations to all our confirmands on this significant and sacred milestone!
