Holy Spirit Catholic Church Whole Community Sacramental Catechesis
Here at Holy Spirit parish, we do all sacrament training as a community. Candidates for First Communion and First Reconciliation will join the Candidates for Confirmation bi-weekly (mostly every other week, as the calendar allows) on Thursday evenings in the church. We begin with a liturgical celebration followed by breakout sessions appropriate to the sacrament for which the candidates are preparing.
Regular community members are invited and encouraged to attend.
Catechism of the Catholic Church 1285 The Sacrament of Confirmation Baptism, the Eucharist, and the sacrament of Confirmation together constitute the "sacraments of Christian initiation, whose unity must be safeguarded. It must be explained to the faithful that the reception of the sacrament of Confirmation is necessary for the completion of baptismal grace.
