The first sacraments programme is carried
out in the parish of St Gregory’s led by the parish catechists.
This is usually done when the children
are in year 3 at school, however, children from higher years who may have
missed the opportunity are more than welcome to join the group.
Invitations will appear in the church newsletter.
The sessions will take place at the weekend, centred around the family Mass which is at 10.30 am on a Sunday.
There will be an enrolment Mass to start
the programme.
6 sessions, following a book entitled
“Making things right”, will lead up to the children receiving the Sacrament of
Forgiveness at a special service on a Saturday morning.
After Christmas, there will be 8 sessions
following a book entitled “Called to His Supper” until the First Holy Communion
Masses which are usually around the feast of Corpus Christi in June.
Depending on the size of the group, there
may be more than one First Holy Communion Mass.
