After baptism, Confirmation is a special step that a person can take in their journey of faith. In essence we confirm the promises made on our behalf at baptism. It marks a step in spiritual maturity and is conducted by a bishop. We have some in our congregation who would like to explore being confirmed. Is that you as well? If so, please have a chat with a member of the clergy who would love to support you! A Confirmation Service is being held for the Eccles Team Ministry with Bishop Matthew, the Bishop Of Bolton at 4pm on Sunday, 18th October 2026. The exact venue will be advised in advance of the service.
