In planning for your child to receive these sacraments, please note:
A child must be baptized and be at least 7 years old to receive these sacraments and have been in a Faith Formation program for at least ONE year PRIOR to entering preparation for these these two sacraments. Sacrament preparation typically begins in the 2nd grade, but we frequently have older elementary-aged children in the program. We are always happy to work individually with someone older who may need to be baptized and/or would like to receive these sacraments.
GRADES K - 5, and children preparing for First Reconciliation and First Eucharist may see a change in scheduling. Older children preparing for the sacraments will attend 6 special sessions during the time their normal sessions meet.
