Preparation for the Sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Communion take place in 2nd Grade.

Our preparation for the Sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Communion supports our parents as the first teachers of faith.  In small groups with other families, our parents share with their children the joy of encountering Christ’s forgiveness and presence in these amazing sacraments.  Their final preparation  culminates with a retreat shared with their parents on a Saturday that includes a variety of activities. If you have any questions, please contact the parish office by calling 515-276-2059.

Parents are expected to take part in Parent Meetings held in the fall of the year. These meetings are opportunities for parents to renew their understanding of the sacraments and to obtain the information necessary to better assist their children.
