Baptism

The Baptism of a child is a significant moment in the life of a Christian family. Parents are expected to participate in a Baptismal Preparation session that helps them to better integrate the new birth and the change this initiates in family life into their spiritual lives.

Reconciliation

There are times when we need to ask God to forgive us. We can do this in the Sacrament of Penance and Reconciliation. Receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation for the first time is a very special celebration in your life. God is always ready to forgive us when we are sorry.

1st Communion

At the Last Supper, Jesus told his disciples to bless and break bread in his memory. He gave us the Eucharist which is the Source and Summit of our Christian Life.

Confirmation

The sacrament of Confirmation is the “seal” of God’s promise, the promise of God’s commitment to us; the one promise that is never broken. the sacrament marks us as God’s property, a people set apart.
