​What grades are offered for the Full Year RE Program?

• We offer RE classes for Kindergarten through 8th grade.  Classes are held Tuesday evenings from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm.

What are the requirements for children to receive the Sacraments of Reconciliation, First Communion, and Confirmation?

• Children must be baptized.  The Archdiocese requires the children to take part in a two year preparation program for the Sacraments of Reconciliation, First Communion, and Confirmation.  The Sacrament of First Reconciliation is generally received in Second Grade, prior to receiving First Holy Communion.  First Holy Communion is the second of our three Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism is our first). It is through these sacraments that we become full members of the Church. Our third Sacrament of Initiation, Confirmation, is celebrated in the spring of Eighth Grade.
