One sepia-toned photograph of the Confirmation "Class of 1915" at St. James Lutheran Church in Detroit. The photo shows four rows of older girls and boys who are seated or standing. Each is holding a Bible along with a certificate that is rolled up and tied with a ribbon. The girls are all wearing white dresses and the boys are wearing dark-colored suits. The pastor, Rev. August G. Bergener, is wearing a clerical robe and is seated at the center of the photo. A painted backdrop is visible in the background. Handwritten black ink text on the verso reads "Class of 1915 Confirmation, March 28, 1915," and "Given to St. James Lutheran Church from Gustav Albert Heyn."
