Festival service for Koni3 children: A farewell full of joy in Lichtenfels!

Lichtenfels, Deutschland - A new phase of life has been broken in Lichtenfels for the Confi3 children. The end of her confi period was duly celebrated, with a solemn service in the Martin Luther Church. A total of 30 children had set off to learn and grow through the topics of the community, community, sacrament and baptism. As it is, they learned to be part of a community that offers more than just Sunday services. Infranken reported that Deacon Andreas Dünisch even received a message from a Confi3 child, which regretted that the time of the confident lesson has already been found has.

In 2024, deacons and church councils of the parishes Michelau, Schwürbitz, Buch am Forst, Schney and Lichtenfels developed a new concept at Confi3 time. The group leaders and deacons have prepared the topics together and there were regular intermediate meetings to promote the exchange among the children. The time was rounded off with a large festival service in which the children not only received their blessings, but also their documents. After the service, the sacrament was celebrated together.

The concept of transfer of faith

By introducing the "Heaven in the Box" concept, the family focuses on, the transfer of faith at home is made easier. Confi3.de emphasizes that this discoverer box offers a four-week treasure hunt to believe and church and deepens the topics of baptism, sacrament and Christian community. So it turns out that faith is not only important in worship, but should also take up space in the family environment.

Especially at a time when religious exchange is often questioned, the training of young people plays an important role. The Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD) underlines the importance of confirmation work. ekd.de reports that the confirmation time for young people is not only a phase of learning, but also a way to grow independently in faith and to integrate into the community. A space is to be created in which the young people can develop their own questions about meaning and faith.

a look ahead

The good news for everyone interested: The next Confi3 time starts in January 2026! All Protestant and non -denominational children are cordially invited in advance to take part in this valuable program. If you have any questions, parents and children can contact the parish offices in Michelau or Lichtenfels at any time to obtain further information and become part of this important journey.
