Confirmation Visit – “Come Holy Spirit”
Tuesday 11 June 2024
The college was delighted to welcome Bishop Tom Williams who came to speak with students about to be Confirmed.
Bishop Tom is no stranger to our college community and is was great for him to be able to engage with the Confirmation class of 2024.
What is the Sacrament of confirmation?
In the Sacrament of Confirmation, the baptized person is “sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit” and is strengthened for service to the Body of Christ.
Confirmation Prayer
Spirit of God, grant me:
The gift of wisdom To see the world through your eyes,
The gift of counsel To make difficult decisions,
The gifts of knowledge and understanding To use my mind to know you and to love you,
The gift of fortitude To have the courage to live in the faith Despite the difficulties and disappointments,
The gift of piety To be able to express my special love And commitment to you,
And the right kind of awesome fear That makes me pause to wonder and revere God’s Love.
Amen
