SACRAMENTAL PREPARATION FOR THE PARENTS

Attendance is mandatory for those parents whose children are preparing for First Communion and Confirmation If the parents do not attend the mandatory classes they are letting us know that they wish their children receive their sacraments next year. If that is the case, they must register again in the religious education and sacramental preparation programs for the following year. Attendance will be taken at each class.
