Reconciliation is a sacramental celebration in which, through God's mercy and forgiveness, the sinner is reconciled with God and also with the Church, Christ's Body, which is wounded by sin. (Catechism of the Catholic Church 1422, 1442-5, 1468)

The sacrament of Reconciliation is usually received during a child's 2nd grade year. Parents and teachers, work together as catechist. Required parent sessions are offered to help families pass on the faith. Particular emphasis is placed on conversion: our inner changes, our struggles, and the loving mercy of God, which is available to us in the striving to do good and avoid evil. Reconciliation sacramental preparation is supplemental to the parish Faith Formation program: Generations of Faith. For more information, contact the parish office at 507-625-3131.
