Children in 2nd grade or older, in addition to their grade-level faith formation, are invited to prepare to celebrate the Sacraments of Reconciliation (or Confession) and First Holy Communion. Preparation will consist of a parent meeting in late fall (an online parent meeting will also be available); a retreat in January; and 6 sets of online resources for each sacrament (a mix of videos and Zoom gatherings with additional handouts). Preparation for First Reconciliation will happen mainly during Lent with celebration of the Sacrament at the end of Lent. Preparation for First Holy Communion will happen during the Easter Season with Celebration of First Holy Communion in May.
