first communion & reconciliation

“Confession is an act of honesty and courage – an act of entrusting ourselves, beyond sin, to the mercy of a loving and forgiving God.” - St. John Paul II


Sacraments - times to experience and receive God's grace, His very life.  What a wonderful gift we share with our children when we bring them to an encounter with God's forgiveness and even more so, the reception of the Body and Blood of His Son, Jesus Christ.  2nd grade is an exciting year as the children are prepared to celebrate these two life-giving sacraments.  We are excited to walk this journey with you and your child!
