Preparing to Receive TWO Sacraments
Students participating in this Sacramental preparation class are actually preparing to recieve TWO sacraments for their first time: Reconciliation & Eucharist.
-
Reconciliation
Most people recognize the Sacrament of Reconciliation by the action, or the term Confession. While preparing to experience this beautiful gift of God's love and forgiveness, children also learn to extend forgiveness to others.
-
Eucharist
"Every time we receive the Eucharist, we repeat that desire with our “Amen!”, which means “Yes! I believe!” We are saying we believe in Jesus Christ and that he is truly present in front of us."

Act of Contrition
My God, I am sorry for my sins with all my heart. In choosing to do wrong and failing to do good, I have sinned against you whom I should love above all things. I firmly intend, with your help, to do penance, to sin no more, and to avoid whatever leads me to sin. Our Savior Jesus Christ suffered and died for us. In his name, my God, have mercy.
Amen
