In Grade three children prepare to celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation (fall) and First Communion (winter-spring).
Preparation involves attending three parent meetings for First Reconciliation in the fall and two parent meetings for First Communion in the winter. There is an "at home" workbook that parents will use for each of the Sacraments. Prior to reception of each of the Sacraments there is an afternoon retreat for the candidates.
If your child was NOT baptized at Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish then you will need to provide a copy of the baptismal certificate which can be brought to the first meeting.
