Celebrating Sacraments


This year has had many twists and turns, including a delay in the celebration of Sacraments of Initiation. Families who were involved in the preparation of their children for Confirmation and Sharing in the Eucharist have been on "hold" as it were for the past 5 months.  Thankfully we now have a process for children to come to the Table and Share in the Eucharist for the first time. 

After a family has returned to worship in the newly configured space - with Physical Distancing markings - they can speak to us about the final steps in the preparation process. This includes tasting the unconsecrated host, and being able to ask questions about the church and the process for coming forward to receive communion. Beginning this coming Sunday we will be welcoming families and children to the Eucharistic Table during Sunday Masses.
