Reconciliation Catechesis is provided for interested parishioners, Grade 2 and older.
Preparation for the sacrament is integrated into the religious education curriculum in Our Lady of the Visitation's school program and on Sunday mornings in the fall at the Parish Religious Education Program (PREP) for public school students. Parents are responsible for bringing children to the parish celebrations of Reconciliation regularly from Grade 2 on, and to see that they have taken the opportunity fo confess individually sometime before the end of Grade 4.(This is a parish guideline). Prepared candidates celebrate the sacrament at the Advent or Lenten Parish Communal Reconciliation Services. Parents are expected to participate in the preparation and ongoing encouragement to participate in this sacrament of healing.
