Sacramental Preparation
It is our aim to help each child grow in the love and knowledge of the Good Shepherd as he or she prepares to receive these Sacraments.
First Holy Communion and Reconciliation candidates must complete two years of formal Catholic education either through RE (Catechesis) or Catholic School. Candidates typically receive the Sacraments in the Spring of 2nd grade.
Candidates are also asked to attend a retreat.
To be eligible for the Sacrament:
-Must be a registered parishioner of St Mary's Taylor.
-Must register for and attend faith formation classes
-Must attend the retreat
-Much submit a copy of the child's Baptismal Certificate.
