PARISH SACRAMENT PROGRAMME 

Your child has gained considerable knowledge and understanding of Catholic faith. As part of our Catholic family, to continue to strengthen this seed of faith, we invite your child to receive the sacraments of Baptism, Reconciliation and/or Eucharist.  

Through Baptism we receive new life in Jesus, through Reconciliation we receive God’s healing grace of forgiveness and through Eucharist we nourish our faith.

We are seeking interest from families and children who would like to be part of our fantastic Parish Sacrament Programme.

If you would like your child to be Baptised into the Catholic Church (this can be any age, and can include pre-school siblings), please contact Jenni Harrison. 

Students wanting to receive Reconciliation and Holy Communion will be in Year 3 or older and baptised in the Catholic Church.  They will receive Reconciliation first and then begin preparation for Eucharist.  Each student/whanau will have approximately 4-5 brief sessions to prepare them for each of these wonderful Sacraments.  (Dates and times will be sorted once we have an indication of numbers). Please let Jenni Harrison know if your child is wishing to participate in this year's Reconciliation and Holy Communion Sacrament programme. 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Jenni Harrison.
