Preparation for Penance / Reconciliation and First Communion
The months of preparation to receive the sacraments of Penance and Eucharist are a wonderful time in a child's life. It is also a gift for their families and an opportunity to appreciate anew the great grace which the Lord gives us in the sacraments.
We hope to give families the resources and support to effectively prepare their children.
