St. Augustine’s is pleased to offer excellent Sacramental preparation. The receipt of First Reconciliation and First Communion is offered during 2nd grade Catechesis to all children who are baptized in the faith. Preparations will be held during the regular class time with Reconciliation being received in November and First Communion in May of each year.
Children above 2nd grade that have yet to receive their First Communion are encouraged to be part of our Special Sacrament class which will be held for four weeks in the fall and four weeks in the spring. Students, 3rd grade though 6th grade, will attend their regularly assigned class and then be asked at attend an additional class from 5:30 – 6:15 for four weeks in both the fall and spring as a preparation for Reconciliation and First Communion.
** Please be sure and notate the need for special sacrament prep on your child’s registration form if he/she is older than 2nd grade. **
Confirmation is celebrated at the end of the 12th year of high school. In order to be Confirmed, a student must be baptized and in full receipt of First Communion as well as being 16 years of age or a Junior standing in high school.
