Lighthouse Confirmation Peer Ministry Program
The Lighthouse Program is a religious faith development program undertaken voluntarily by Confirmed high school students—“Lighthouse leaders”—and younger candidates who will be receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation (ages 10-16). Comprised of leadership training and a peer ministry component, the program invites older students to become actively involved in leading catechesis for Confirmation, as part of a larger preparation process.
Note that this is not a comprehensive preparation program, but is meant to be used in conjunction with a larger Confirmation program.
“If you’re searching for a meaningful way to energize your Confirmation program, this is exactly what you’ve been waiting for. The Lighthouse Program offers a powerful and practical approach to forming young disciples who are ready to lead. It equips recently confirmed youth to step forward, share their faith, and accompany candidates on their journey. Instead of simply talking about discipleship, it puts it into action—creating authentic connections that resonate.”
