Confirmation Service Hours
“Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.”
(Matthew 25:40) Remember:
- Service is based on the spiritual and corporal works of mercy and most of all on the example of Christ who came to SERVE.
- Your service is not a job to be done. Nor is it something you would tag onto a requirement as a member of another organization such as concession stands, Booster Club, Show Choir. Your service hours are selflessly and lovingly helping those in need.
- You should reflect on how your service project is helping you take on the mind and heart of Christ, fulfill the needs of others, and build up the Christian community.
- Assisting family members – parents; grandparents; aunts; uncles; cousins; etc. are not to be counted as service hours – we are to selflessly help family members in need.
