First Penance & First Eucharist Form
PREPARING FOR FIRST PENANCE, FIRST EUCHARIST, OR CONFIRMATION
Archdiocese of Baltimore policy is that our young people prepare for these sacraments with two years of faith formation. At our parish, the first year (“foundation year”) helps our young disciples to learn the background. The second year (“immediate preparation year”) is when they learn about the sacrament and will receive the sacrament.
FIRST PENANCE & FIRST COMMUNION
The usual year to receive these sacraments is the Second Grade.
Foundation Year - Public School & Private School students: School of Religion 1st Grade
Foundation Year - Catholic School students: 1st Grade in a Catholic School
Immediate Preparation Year - all students: School of Religion 2nd Grade
CONFIRMATION
The usual year to receive this sacrament is the Ninth Grade.
Foundation Year - Public School & Private School students: School of Religion 8th Grade
Foundation Year - Catholic School students: 8th Grade in a Catholic School
Immediate Preparation Year - all students: School of Religion Confirmation Class
It is not too late if your children have not received these sacraments during the usual years. We will help you and your children to prepare and receive the sacraments.
