This Letter is ONLY for PARENTS/GUARDIANS who ENROLLED their Child with Father Fabian and Father Samuel for the RECEPTION of SACRAMENTS for 2023
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Thank you for taking the time to enrol you child for the reception of Sacraments in 2023. The following dates will assist in the planning for your child’s Sacramental Program in 2023. Your commitment to the Sacraments for your children is of utmost importance and requires ALL of the 4 following Steps in order for your child to be able to receive the sacrament in 2023.
Your commitment to –
- Enrolment meeting for the sacrament (You have completed this Step)
- Parent Information evenings
- Commitment mass
- Retreat day for the preparation for First Eucharist and Confirmation
A lack of commitment to any of these would defer your child’s reception of the sacrament, to another year until full commitment is shown.
