Join us as we discuss ways to make confirmation programs accessible to all abilities. We know that God calls us all to be a part of the Body, and our confirmation programs can be a tool in helping to get everyone on the path that God calls them to follow. We’ll discuss techniques for adapting materials, ways of structuring classes and assignments so everyone can participate, methods for managing behavioral concerns, and ways to focus our planning on the gifts and talents each person brings to the Body.
