Abstract

The purpose of the present study was, in a sense, a means to the ends referred to above. In this report, in which the results of the author’s survey are set forth and compared with two other surveys, the intention is to bring to light some of the ways in which confirmation instruction is being conducted by Lutheran pastors of the Synodical Conference in their various parishes throughout the United States. It was hoped that by this survey the methods, approaches, texts, and other materials used by some would be of help to others also in carrying out their confirmation instruction.

The main purpose of the study, then, was to observe by means of a survey the confirmation instruction in the Synodical Conference and compare the results with those found in other surveys in order, if possible, to bring to light some of the general patterns in confirmation instruction.
