You are invited to participate in a 3 month preparation program - designed for youth and a parent to attend together. Our pastoral staff will host a series of 3 meetings that culminates in your child celebrating their First Reconciliation followed by receiving the Eucharist for the first time during the Easter Season. Teens currently in eighth grade and above who'd like to be confirmed would need to join or continue in our current preparation process and participate in those meetings leading up to confirmation in November.
