Sacramental Preparation

Full, conscious and active participation in the celebration of the Sacraments (Sacred Signs of the Presence of Jesus) necessitate some preparation of mind and heart. The Church, through its leadership, offers opportunities for this preparation.

Our junior parishioners, in Elementary and High School, receive this preparation in formal programs that are arranged by the Office of Faith Formation.

Our adult parishioners are prepared on a group/individual basis, depending on the number of persons involved.
