Healing Sacraments: Reconciliation

Guidelines for Celebrating the Sacrament of Reconciliation

While preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation begins in first and second grade, normally instruction and immediate preparation for the Sacrament takes place in Fourth Grade where the curriculum covers the Commandments, the Beatitudes, and the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

Grade 5 and Above (older youth)

Students in Grade 5 and above who want to prepare for and celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation follow a home study program designed to help youth come to an understanding of sin, of individuals as sinners, and of the conditions requisite for serious sin. The catechesis itself emphasizes God's mercy and loving forgiveness. It also stresses that faith, a gift of God, is an ongoing call to conversion from sin.

Ordinarily, older youth preparing to celebrate Reconciliation are also involved in another regular program in the parish which helps them grow in faith, and be involved in the parish community.
