Sacrament Preparation Classes
Traditionally, we prepare children for the Sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion in the third grade at St. Michael. Our preparation program is a combined process for the children and their parents. Parents will participate in an orientation/training session to prepare them to lead six lessons at home for each sacrament. Each Sacrament preparation ends with two, 2-hour parent/child sessions. Children who fulfill the regular faith formation requirement outside of the St. Michael classroom program can register for sacrament preparation only - see the options below.
Requirements:The Diocese of Richmond requires:
- All children prepare for First Reconciliation prior to preparation for First Holy Communion.
- All children must participate in a Sacrament preparation program in addition to a general faith formation program.
- Registration is required!
- All parents attend an orientation session in November and another in March to become familiar with the preparation process and the curriculum that they will be using at home.
- Families will have the opportunity to sign up for one of two session times for the parent/child meetings:
- Sunday 1:00-3:00 pm
- Monday 6:00-8:00 pm
