Preparing young children to celebrate the sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist is an important part of the faith practice of all Catholic families. Each family takes seriously its responsibility to pass our Catholic faith traditions on to their children.

The parents of these children will also be involved in the preparation process. Parents will attend the “Family Connections” evening meetings during the month of October. To facilitate the sharing of faith throughout the entire preparation process, parents will be present at their children’s class sessions every time they meet.

All of this is done to assure that everyone will grow together as faith-filled Catholic Christians who understand both a personal commitment to Jesus Christ and a commitment to continued participation in an active Christian Community.

In addition to the time spent in class, families must plan to attend church every weekend and participate fully in the celebration of Mass. All the children will celebrate Children’s Liturgy of the Word each Sunday during Mass. Also, conversation at the family supper table needs to include talk of growth in faith, love for God and neighbor, and what it means to be a Catholic Christian.

Together, your parish
and your family
prepare these young people to be
welcomed to the table of the Lord.
