Two-Year Commitment for Sacramental Prep
Sacramental preparation is a two-year commitment for each student under the age of 18 (meaning a minimum of two consecutive years of Catechism required, in addition to other basic requirements, to receive a Sacrament). There will be scheduled parent meeting(s) during the year for students who are preparing to receive Sacraments.
These meetings are necessary so that you can help your child prepare, and know what to expect as a family.
Thank you & God bless you!
