Students prepare for their First Reconciliation beginning in First Grade and make their First Reconciiation in second grade usually in the month of November.

For family convenience, this meeting is held three different times. Choose the time that is most convenient for your family.  The student receiving the Sacrament of reconciliation along with at least one parent/guardian must attend this meeting.

September 29 at 12:45pm OR 5:15pm
September 30 at 6:00pm

The meeting will last approximately an hour and 15 minutes and it is held in the school cafeteria

At this meeting Fr. Dave will be present to give a short presentation to the parents about the Sacrament of Reconciliation while the students do some brief workshops. Students and parents will also receive information about the actual night of First Reconciliation, materials to use to prepare for First Reconciliation and the students will complete a project for the night of Reconciliation.

All students preparing for First Reconciliation are invited to be welcomed by the parish after the homily of each of the Masses.  Parents and students will be called up to the altar and will receive a blessing from the presider. The students will receive a token gift as a reminder of their time preparing for this sacrament.

First Reconciliation will take place during on Tuesday, November 19, 2020 between 6:30 and 8:00pm. This is an "open house" format and families should plan to attend any time during these hours. This helps minimize the wait time and helps you keep other commitments you might have.
It is also a family Reconciliation service so all family members are encouraged to celebrate the Sacrament.  We have multiple (many) priests availble so the time to wait should not be long.
