Month of Prayer for the Holy Spirit this August

Month of Prayer for the Holy Spirit. During August we are encouraged to pray for the gifts of the Holy Spirit both for ourselves and our church community, daily if we can. You might like to use this prayer from the Confirmation Service. Try keeping a minute of silence then say:

God of mercy, by whose grace alone your people are accepted and equipped for your service: stir up in me the gifts of your Holy Spirit and make me worthy of your calling; that I may bring forth the fruits of the Spirit in love and joy and peace; through Jesus Christ, my Lord and my God.

Amen.
