Sacramental preparation is the responsibility of the parish and parents. Any support teachers give is very much appreciated and a gift to the children.

Lenten Family Prayer Centre & Activities for Lent

Lenten Prayer Campaign: Lenten Prayer Campaign student permission form

As the Catholic church sees Sacramental Preparation as an exceptionally special celebration involving the entire community, our parishioners will be invited to begin the liturgical time of Lent praying for our students who are about to receive these beautiful Sacraments.

How will the Prayer Campaign work?

  • A basket will be set up in the rear of the church with ONLY the first name of each of our candidates, along with a number.   Parishioners will be invited to draw a name and commit to pray for him/her until their Sacrament is received.
  • A “mailbox” will also be set up giving parishioners the option of writing a special note of support to their candidate; notes will be delivered directly to the school and forwarded to the student.
  •  There will be no contact of any nature between the parishioner and the student.
