BAPTISM is one very special way God delivers the blessings Jesus has won for us! In baptism, God pours out His grace and His Spirit on us “..so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life” (Titus 3:7). One of our pastors is ready to meet with you! To learn more email smang@sllcs.org or call 407-365-3408.

FAMILY CONFIRMATION This class (2 Sessions: 6wks in the Fall and 6wks in the Spring) is designed for students to explore and affirm the faith they previously received at baptism. Students in 7-8th grades with their families will be led through an experiential learning process covering God’s Word and Lutheran doctrine. Confirmation is formatted to give families the tools to take what is learned in class back home for an in depth conversation and encouragement that will impact their faith for a lifetime.
HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION What does it take to help your son or daughter leave high school and enter adult life with a steadfast faith? We invite parents and high school seniors to our Graduation Milestone class to learn how to build a faith that endures long beyond graduation. Childcare can be available.
FIRST COMMUNION Families of students in 6th-8th grade are invited to a one day class on the Lord’s Supper and invite them to the Lord’s Table for the first time! This marks the beginning of the confirmation experience which typically starts in the 7th grade. If you think your student isn’t quite ready to take part in the Lord’s Supper at this time you are welcome to wait until the following year, or at the Rite of Confirmation.
