First Reconciliation

Each time we celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation we experience, in a very profound way, the unconditional love and mercy of God. And so, we reaffirm our relationship with Jesus and our willingness to re-commit ourselves to the gift of faith we received in baptism.

Children in Year 4 and above are invited to begin preparation for their first experience of the Sacrament of Reconciliation. The Sacrament of Reconciliation is normally received following Confirmation and before First Eucharist (Holy Communion).

Our parent information evening will be held in Holy Spirit Church on Wednesday 7 February at 6.30pm. 

On Monday 12th February the online link to register for Reconciliation will be available at the bottom of this page. Registration will close on Friday 23rd February. No registrations will be accepted after the commencement of classes.

The four weeks of Reconciliation classes will begin at 4pm on Sunday, 25th February and continue on Sunday 3rd March, Sunday 10th March and Sunday 17th March.

Classes will be followed by 5pm Mass in Holy Spirit Church, where your children will be welcomed by the parish community and involved in all aspects of the liturgy over the four week period.

The Sacrament of Reconciliation will be celebrated on your choice of either:-

Tuesday, 19th March, 3.30pm or 5.00pm

Wednesday, 20th March, 3.30pm or 5.00pm

Thursday, 21st March, 3.30pm or 5.00pm

Meanwhile, you can prepare yourself and your child for this sacrament by talking with them about God's love for them, about making good and poor choices, about saying sorry and about being forgiven. Come experience the Sacrament of Reconciliation for yourself, any weekend, Saturday 4.30pm - 4.45pm, Sunday 8.30am - 8.45am or Sunday 4.30pm- 4.45pm.
