Loving God,

we gather as a school community

to pray for our young people

who are preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation.

Fill them with your Holy Spirit—

the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,

the Spirit of courage and wonder,

the Spirit of knowledge and reverence.

Guide them as they grow in faith,

help them to listen to your call,

and strengthen them to live

as disciples of Jesus in our world.

May they be people of kindness and compassion,

who stand for what is right,

who bring peace,

and who share your love with all they meet.

Bless their families, teachers, and sponsors

who walk with them on this journey of faith.

Amen.
