"Repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be wiped away."
-Acts 3:19
Reconciliation is a sacrament of healing. The grace and peace that comes from saying "I am sorry" and hearing "You are forgiven" is to be experienced again and again. Students typically make their First Reconciliation in 2nd grade in preparation for receiving their First Communion. Our focus is to support parents on this journey, as they are the primary educators of the faith. The (5) group classes needed to prepare for First Communion, also help to prepare students to make their First Reconciliation. A mandatory parent meeting will be scheduled prior to the First Reconciliation penance service.
If an older student is seeking to make their First Reconciliation, we will work to make an individual plan that best works for them and their family.
