Commitment to Parish Sacramental Programme

Readiness
If you feel you or your child are not ready to commit yourself to the Parish Sacramental Programme you can always choose to defer for a year or more until you feel ready to make the commitment necessary to make this programme as personally and spiritually meaningful as possible. Failure to participate fully in this programme, without a valid reason, may lead to the postponement of the reception of your child's Sacrament.

  Even though your child may be enrolled in the programme, it is important to contribute to their education and preparation both at home and in Mass. Preparing a child for their Reconciliation involves discussion, study and spiritual guidance. Parents are required to guide their child's understanding of sin. Fr John Madden has recorded two adult education videos to assist you in educating your child. Click on the links below to access the videos.

- 2023 COMPULSORY WORKSHOP
  
  These workshops will be child-focused. Our Parish Sacramental Programme is open to all children who belong to our Parish independent of where they attend school. It is essential that some adults are also present for obvious reasons.
  
  Our Parish-Based Sacramental Programme involves two workshops. There will be every opportunity to spiritually prepare your child by giving them a clear understanding of the meaning and purpose of this Sacrament. This will include how to receive the Sacrament offering practical advice as well as answering any concerns they may have. Consequently, it is essential to participate in our Parish-Based Programme to prepare your child for their Sacrament. It is compulsory to attend both sessions.
  
  These workshops are for your child's spiritual benefit. We will explore the Sacrament of Reconciliation:
  * to prepare your child to receive the Sacrament.
  * for families to reconnect with their local parish.
  * to get acquainted with your local parish priest on a personal basis.
  * to develop a spiritual way of life.
  
  The workshop is scheduled on:
  Date: Saturday 4 & 18 March 2023
  Time: 3:30-4:30 pm
  Venue: Sacred Heart Church, 116 Cotham Road Kew.
