PRAYER FOR RITE OF ACCEPTANCE FOR CONFIRMATION

Lord, you have filled these young people
with the desire to become full members of our Catholic community.
As they grow in faith, give them wisdom and insight,
respond to their hopes,
deepen their love for you and for one another
and strengthen us as a community
so that we can provide an environment
in which they can always feel welcome
and in which their gifts will be honoured and treasured.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen
