SACRAMENT PREPARATION DATES 2026/27
RECONCILIATION
THIS YEAR WE ARE DOING THINGS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENTLY. To help children feel more calm and confident, we will be offering a Parent/Child Preparation Session, with First Confessions the same weekend. We will also time these so that they are proximate to the final in-class preparation session. In order to do this, we will be artificially separating our School families and our Growing Catholics Families. First Confessions will be held during regular Saturday Confession times, to get a good habit started the way it will go on. (Well, actually we'll begin an hour earlier.) NOTE: We did schedule the Preparation Sessions at two different times; if your family cannot attend the one "aimed" at you; feel free to attend the other.
