On Sunday 29 May 2022, the confirmands of the Gauteng-Mpumalanga Apostle Area gathered in each of the districts across the Apostle area. In some instances where possible, the districts combined and enjoyed meeting new and old friends.
The theme chosen for the gathering was “The fruits of the Spirit”, and the Bible word was taken from Galatians 5:22-23.
The confirmands, together with the Young People of their respective districts, were tasked with the decorating of jewels, depicting the fruits of the Spirit to attach to a crown that was constructed in each venue. The preparation also included a spokesperson from each district who prepared a short presentation on one of the fruits of the Spirit. It was presented to the collective gathering of fellow confirmands and their parents after the AVT Service with the District Apostle John Kriel.
Many beautiful and blessed moments of joy were experienced amongst the confirmands. The beginning of their final preparation for Confirmation Day was rounded off with the reciting of the Confirmation Vow.
