Below are the dates for the celebration of the Sacrament of Confirmation in parishes across the Diocese of Clogher in 2027.
| What is Confirmation? Confirmation is the sacrament that completes Baptism; in it the gift of the Holy Spirit is bestowed upon us. Anyone who freely decides to live a life as God’s child and asks for God’s Spirit under the signs of the imposition of hands and anointing with chrism receives the strength to witness to God’s love and might in word and deed. They are now a full-fledged, responsible member of the Catholic Church. What happens in Confirmation? – YOUCAT – Youth Catechism of the Catholic Church. |
A PRAYER FOR CONFIRMATION CANDIDATES
Holy Spirit, strengthen our young people with your gifts of Wisdom, Understanding, Right Judgement, Courage, Knowledge, Reverence, and Wonder and Awe in God’s presence. Grant that they may grow into the fullness of life in Christ. Fill them with the joy of your presence. Increase in them the fruits of your Spirit. Help them to experience and trust your dwelling within them so that they can count on your guidance today and every day. Show us all the way to help one another to daily become better disciples of Jesus Christ, sharing your love with our world and with each person we meet.
Come, Holy Spirit! Come!
