Prayer for Confirmation Candidates

Holy Spirit,

Prepare our Candidates to fully receive the gifts of Wisdom,

Understanding, Counsel, Fortitude, Knowledge, Piety,

and Fear of the Lord, and to begin a life of service to Jesus, Our Lord.

Prepare them to receive the joy of your presence and the fruits,

which you offer to them. Help them to trust that you will come

to dwell within them so that they may count on your guidance every day of their lives.

Show them how to become better disciples of Jesus Christ,

sharing your love with our world and with each person they meet.

Come, Holy Spirit!
