What is the difference between baptism and confirmation?
One can be baptized after birth. Confirmation is the time when individuals confirm the vows that they took or that were taken by their parents at the time of baptism. Confirmation marks the time when a person is actually received as a member of the United Methodist Church. Generally, young people completing the sixth grade participate in a membership training class before they are confirmed. Source: Questions and Answers About the United Methodist Church by Thomas S.
