Reconciliation,Confirmation and Eucharist
The Parish Sacramental Team consists of a small dedicated group who organise and co-ordinate the Parish program under the guidance of Fr Kevin. The group meets on a regular basis to cater for children of Sacramental age from the Parish.
Each year children of Year 3 are introduced to a simple reconciliation ceremony where the children gather as a group in the Church and then go up individually and speak to either Fr Kevin or an assisting priest who are both seated around the altar.
The Year 5 children are later prepared for the first rite of Reconciliation. Both of these ceremonies are celebrated during the season of Lent.
Year 4 children are prepared for Confirmation and Eucharist after Easter. This preparation begins with a parent information evening. The parents and children then form small home groups and meet each week to discuss the sacraments together. This four week period concludes with the Bishop officiating at the Confirmation ceremony. For the following weekends the children attend any of the weekend Masses and complete the sacraments of initiation into our Catholic community with the receiving of their First Eucharist.
If you have any concerns regarding the Sacramental Program please ring the Parish (55982165) or the school (55988730) for assistance.
