Prayer for Confirmation
Asking the Holy Spirit's gifts for someone being confirmed
Confirmation seals what was begun in Baptism, strengthening the recipient with the gifts of the Holy Spirit. This prayer asks for those gifts to take root.
Come, Holy Spirit, and strengthen this soul being confirmed today. Grant the gifts of wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and fear of the Lord. Make this sacrament a true beginning of mature faith, not simply the end of religious education. Amen.
