Preparation for the Sacraments of
Reconciliation and Eucharist (First Communion)
The sacramental preparation can be an exciting time for the whole family. We are happy to be in partnership with you in the preparation.
This process is for youth that have completed at least 1 year of Religious Education classes (i.e. regular attendance at Sunday Faith Formation Classes or attending a Catholic School*) during the year prior to registering for Sacramental preparation.
Per Archdiocesan Guidelines:
Sacramental Catechesis (classes for the preparation of the sacrament) should take place in the parish at which the Candidate for First Communion worships.
Teens are being prepared to become not only fully initiated members of the Church, but active members of the parish.
This cannot be accomplished if they are not members of the parish.
In order to be prepared for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Communion, the child has to be registered and have regular attendance to Weekly Faith Formation Classes as well as all Sacramental Preparation classes.
*If your child is in a Catholic School or in another Parish you will have to provide a letter.
