Special sessions to update and/or re-educate parents in the theology of the Sacrament of Reconciliation will be offered to parent/guardians of second grade or older students enrolled in a CCE program this year and last year.  The directives, guidelines, and procedures of the Diocese and parish sacramental policy are explained at these sessions.

Instructional materials to be utilized in the home will be explained and distributed.  These sessions are required of parent/guardians and child.  They are presented only once.  Our Diocesan policy states the preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation shall occur before the reception of the Eucharist.

Preparation of the Child

At the parent session, books will be given to parents to work with their child at home to prepare for the Sacrament of Reconciliation.  Instructions for use of the text will be given.  A $15.00 fee will be charged to cover the textbook and supplies.
