 e Deanery for this year's Deanery Confirmation Service which will take pla
 ce at St Nics\, Durham.\n\nPreacher:\nThe Right Reverend Frank White - Ass
 istant Bishop (Diocese of Durham)\n\nNow there was a Pharisee named Nicode
 mus\, a leader of the Jews. He came to Jesus by night and said to him\, 
 ‘Rabbi\, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God\; for no o
 ne can do these signs that you do apart from the presence of God.’ Jesus
  answered him\, ‘Very truly\, I tell you\, no one can see the kingdom of
  God without being born from above.’ Nicodemus said to him\, ‘How can 
 anyone be born after having grown old? Can one enter a second time into th
 e mother’s womb and be born?’ Jesus answered\, ‘Very truly\, I tell 
 you\, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and 
 Spirit. What is born of the flesh is flesh\, and what is born of the Spiri
 t is spirit. Do not be astonished that I said to you\, “You must be born
  from above.” The wind blows where it chooses\, and you hear the sound o
 f it\, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is 
 with everyone who is born of the Spirit.’\n\n(John 3:1-8\, New Revised S
 tandard Version - Anglicized Edition)\n\nThe Collect for Baptism and Confi
 rmation:\n\nHeavenly Father\, by the power of your Holy Spirit you give to
  your faithful people new life in the water of baptism. Guide and strength
 en us by the same Spirit\, that we who are born again may serve you in fai
 th and love\, and grow into the full stature of your Son\, Jesus Christ\, 
 who is alive and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit now and f
 or ever.\n\nAmen.\n\nThe Post Communion for Baptism and Confirmation:\n\nG
 od of mercy\, by whose grace alone we are accepted and equipped for your s
 ervice: stir up in us the gifts of your Holy Spirit and make us worthy of 
 our calling\; that we may bring forth the fruit of the Spirit in love and 
 joy and peace\; through Jesus Christ our Lord.\n\nAmen.
