Dipping Into Denmark Church Records: 1892 Confirmation of Johanne Magrethe Stenger in Skærbæk, Tønder, Denmark

My grandsons have Danish ancestry through their father.  His great-grandparents came from Denmark in 1906 and settled in Chicago.

FamilySearch has a nice list of 28 Denmark record collections, and many of them are indexed and have record images.  I am using the "Denmark Church Records, 1484-1941" collection for these records.

Today, I'm looking for the birth, baptism or confirmation record of Johanne Margrethe Stenger in Skærbæk, Tønder, Denmark:

Here is the comfirmation record summary image:

And the actual record image is:

The confirmation record is the first record on the page.  Here is the record:

The source citation for this confirmation record is:

"Danmark Kirkebøger, 1484-1941," database with images, FamilySearch  (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QGWX-DR3M : 15 June 2020), Johanne Magrethe Stenger, 1892; Confirmation, Skærbæk, Tønder, Danmark, Rigsarkivet, København (The Danish National Archives), Copenhagen.

I found no birth or baptism record for Johanne Magrethe Stenger in these church records.

Johanne Magrethe Stenger married Hans Lauritzen Hede (1880-1940) in 1904 in Denmark, and they migrated to Chicago, Illinois in about 1906.  They are my grandsons 2nd great-grandparents.

Note that these records are also on Ancestry.com ($$) and MyHeritage.com ($$).
