In this assignment, you will first be asked to read a passage from the Bible and respond to several questions based on what you read. Then, you will be asked to think about which gift of the Holy Spirit you would like to receive more of at your Confirmation and create a presentation on that gift. If you do not plan to complete this entire assignment at one time, it may be helpful for you to write your answers in a separate document and then copy them into the form below when you are ready to submit all parts of the assignment. If you have any questions, please email Amy at [email protected]
