With a theological and historical overview of the newly translated texts of The Order of Confirmation, this practical resource provides your parish team with a collaborative approach to catechizing about and preparing for the Confirmation liturgy. Paul Turner walks through each part of the rite, noting best practices and highlighting differences in the newly translated ritual; provides guidance selecting Scripture readings, prayer texts, and music; advice for preparing the liturgical environment; and offers suggestions for evangelization and hospitality.

“Turner's Guide contains a plethora of information on preparing and celebrating the Sacrament of Confirmation. The Guide thoroughly answers any question a director, teacher, catechist, parent, or candidate may have. The comprehensive text provides everything one might need to feel prepared and confident in assisting candidates to receive the Gifts of the Spirit in Confirmation."

Bishop Gerald Kicanas, Diocese of Tucson, Arizona



“An indispensable resource for anyone who works with young people. Turner provides a treasure trove of information that places the sacrament in historical, scriptural, liturgical, and theological context. This book will help greatly in promoting thoughtful, meaningful, and well-aligned sacramental preparation."

Matthew Reichert, Principal, Saint John's Preparatory School, Collegeville, Minnesota



“Paul Turner has developed a resource for the celebration of Confirmation that is unparalleled among other texts. If it has often been said that the sacrament of Confirmation is a rite in search of a theology, Turner reminds us that this rite actually does have a theology, one distinct from a graduation ceremony in which sole responsibility is placed on the faith of the believer rather than the gift of the Spirit. Every catechist and youth minister in the country, every bishop reconsidering the age of Confirmation within his diocese, should read this text.”

--Timothy P. O’Malley, Associate Professional Specialist, Director, Notre Dame Center for Liturgy, Concurrent Professor, Department of Theology



“Anyone involved in the celebration of the Rite of Confirmation will benefit from the invaluable scriptural, historical, and theological exegesis, succinct and informative liturgy preparation guide, and FAQ section worthy of consideration in and of itself.”

Evan Snyder, Director of Music and Liturgy, St. Viator, Chicago, Illinois
