shared creators
We are building a Christian online confirmation resource with young people for young people. We invite partners who value young people's participation, meaningful learning and safe communities.
Propose a partnershipA shared purpose
Support for creating Room for young people's voices
The 13-theme resource combines short films, facilitator materials and ready-to-use activities. It aims to make preparation easier and leave more time for connecting with young people. Young people are invited to help develop stories, activities and delivery, and to take part in film production where possible.
A social purpose, an open approach
The partnership is based on supporting young people's wellbeing, participation and learning and opening employment opportunities, for example in film production. Partners can associate their brand with this work. It does not require advertising the sponsor's products or achieving sales results. The producer is the commercial company Sheprock Media Oy, which plans to offer the resource to parishes through a paid annual licence.
The partner receives the brand cooperation and communication materials specified in the agreement. This is a partnership with agreed benefits, rather than an open collection of monetary donations.

Video sources and example calculation
Church confirmation education statistics 2025: 48,214 young people (aged 14–16).
The example assumes a saving of 45 minutes of preparation per theme and group: 13 × 0.75 h × 10 groups = 97.5 hours a year. The chart applies the same assumption to 5, 10 and 20 groups: 48.75 h, 97.5 h and 195 h. This is an assumption for the calculation, not a measured time saving. Time released can be used to connect with young people and for other important work.
Choose a focus
What can the partnership focus on?
Creative production
Short films, illustrations, audio and other AV production. Stories and visual tools that create room for conversation.
Written content
Theological background, facilitator guidance, interpretative examples and activities, with ongoing updates.
Young people's participation
Facilitated idea and feedback workshops and safe participation in scriptwriting and film production. We also aim to involve young people outside parish activities.

Trust first
On young people's side, with content at the centre
- Activities, Kahoot questions and short film stories contain no product advertising or calls to purchase.
- Partners are identified in separate partner profiles and agreed production credits. Production acknowledgements visible to young people are discreet, with no sales links or calls to purchase.
- Sheprock retains theological, educational and artistic editorial control and the rights to the resource.
- Partners do not receive young people's contact details or rights to use their images, voices or stories in their own advertising. Communication materials respect this boundary.
- The partnership does not imply endorsement of the partner's products by the church or customer parish.
- Partners may describe the cooperation and use agreed partnership materials in their marketing, provided the conditions above and the usage rights defined in the agreement are met.
We reserve the right to decline partnerships with the following
For this production, we do not partner with tobacco or nicotine products, alcohol brands, gambling operators, adult entertainment or services exploiting young people's financial vulnerability. We exclude party election campaigns and partnerships that would turn the resource into a tool for political influence.
We also consider substantiated serious concerns about discrimination, exploitation or misleading practices. We do not accept partners who demand control over content or conditions that compromise young people's personal data or the independence of the learning material. Cases are assessed individually and decisions are made by Sheprock's responsible team.
