The Sacrament Of Reconciliation

1440 Sin is before all else an offense against God, a rupture of communion with him. At the same time, it damages communion with the Church. For this reason, conversion entails both God’s forgiveness and reconciliation with the Church, which are expressed and accomplished liturgically by the sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation.
The Sacrament of The Eucharist

Sacrament of Confirmation

1303 From this fact, Confirmation brings an increase and deepening of baptismal grace:
- it roots us more deeply in the divine filiation which makes us cry, “Abba! Father!”
- it unites us more firmly to Christ;
- it increases the gifts of the Holy Spirit in us;
- it renders our bond with the Church more perfect
- it gives us a special strength of the Holy Spirit to spread and defend the faith by word and action as true witnesses of Christ, to confess the name of Christ boldly, and never to be ashamed of the Cross:
Welcome! Beginning in 2024, the parish will be offering a PRE-sacramental program for the families and the children preparing to receive the Sacraments of Reconciliation, Holy Communion and Confirmation.

After the Sacramental Program, when the children have celebrated their Sacraments, continued support from the parish will be given to the children on their faith journey. This will be through ongoing religious education, opportunities for spiritual growth, and involvement in parish activities. Additionally, the parish can provide a sense of community, mentorship, service opportunities and encouragement to live out the teachings of the Church in daily life.
