'For where 2 or 3 are gathered in my name, I am there among them.' - Matthew 18:20
St Patrick's Church annually welcomes baptised Catholic young people, School Year 4 and older, to the programme to complete the Sacraments of Initiation (Reconciliation, Confirmation and Communion). Created by the Diocese of Auckland, this short-course helps to prepare children to understand and receive the Sacraments, while also helping families to continue the faith formation beyond! Adult parents or whaanau must attend the course alongside their child.
This programme is only one part of your child's formation.
Children's Liturgy, Mass,
religious education (RE) and family guidance
are all equally important for a well-balanced faith journey. The family is considered the primary teachers of the faith!
