A Note About Confirmation/Reception & Our Inquirer's Class

If you have not been Confirmed or Received by a Bishop of the Episcopal Church, or by a Bishop of a Church in communion with the Episcopal Church (e.g. another Bishop of the Anglican Communion), then you should also participate in our Inquirers' Class to learn about the Episcopal Church and prepare for Confirmation or Reception.

Participation in our Inquirer's Class is also appropriate if you have been away from the church for a long time so you may prepare to Reaffirm your Baptismal promises.

Confirmation/Reception is required to become a voting member of St. Paul's at our annual meeting and to be eligible to serve: on Vestry (our elected lay governing board), as a parish deputy to our diocesan convention, as a parish delegate to our deanery, or as a deputy to the Episcopal Church's General Convention.
