My son, Noah, will be making his Confirmation next weekend, and all through his preparation I was wishing I had something that would focus specifically on this sacrament in a way that would be informative and engaging without being overwhelming. Lo and behold, in my mailbox one afternoon I found exactly what I ‘d been searching for.
My Confirmation Book ($16.99, Paraclete Press) by Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle is a beautiful book that not only guides young Catholics (and their parents) as they move toward Confirmation but also serves as a hardcover keepsake. This small but well-packed book includes prayers, reflection questions, and brief explanations of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit with real-life examples to make them more accessible.
I can attest to the fact that you just can’t find anything else like this out there. Trust me, I’ve looked. So if you know someone who will be making his or her Confirmation any time soon, pick this book up today. Click HERE to go directly to Donna-Marie’s site and order an autographed copy.
