Faith, friendship, and a parish in uncertainty

Set within the West Brothers contemporary Catholic fiction series, this installment brings Peter Brandt into an unexpected connection with his rival Jarret West: both Jarret and his brothers are candidates for Confirmation, though each approaches the sacrament differently. At the same time, rumors that St. Michael’s may close place the parish’s future in question. Caitlyn, facing new responsibilities at home after her mother leaves to help her parents, joins Peter in looking for answers. The story links these personal and parish concerns through the “Fire Starters,” while addressing questions teens may have before and after Confirmation.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens interested in contemporary Catholic fiction and Confirmation.
  • Readers who enjoy stories combining friendship and family responsibilities with parish life.

Book overview

Fire Starters: a Confirmation story. Book 6 in the West Brothers contemporary Catholic fiction series for teens.

The moment Peter Brandt discovers archenemy Jarret West is a Confirmation candidate, the ceiling of St. Michael's Church caves in. He soon learns none of the West brothers have received the sacrament: Keefe is looking forward to it, Roland hates drawing attention to himself, and Jarret doesn't think he's worthy.Before Peter gets over his shock, whispers of bad news surround him. Parishioners suspect that the parish will soon close and be merged with a neighboring, newly remodeled church.

Peter's friend Caitlyn is anxious to help, but her life comes crashing down when her mother leaves to aid her aged parents. Now Caitlyn is homeschooling with a neighboring family and caring for her younger siblings, and she can't see her friends at school. Peter and Caitlyn soon suspect that someone might be behind the potential closing of their church. Not one to give up easily, Caitlyn suggests the Fire Starters help with preparing the West brothers and saving the church.

Story threads address questions teens have before and even after Confirmation.
