Novena to the Holy Spirit: Day 2

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

O Holy Spirit, Divine Consoler!
I give you praise with the angels and the saints.
I offer you my whole heart, and give you thanks for all you have given me.
You shower your gifts on all the faithful,
I ask you to visit (me/candidate’s name) with your grace and your love
as (I/name of candidate) prepare(s) to be sealed with your power at Confirmation.

Come, O Holy Spirit,
fill the hearts of your faithful,
and kindle in them the fire of your love.

O Holy Spirit, make me faithful in every thought, and grant that I may always listen to your voice, and watch for your light, and follow your inspirations. Come, Holy Spirit, shine on us with the radiance of your love. May you help us to rejoice in the countless blessings God has given us and teach us to do God’s will. May your wisdom guide us and all God’s people.

Come, O Holy Spirit,

fill the hearts of your faithful

and kindle in them the fire of your love.
