    • 2020-2021 Sacramental registration

      Young people in Grade 2 (or older), with their family's support, are invited to celebrate their First Reconciliation (Confession) and their First Communion this year.

      Celebrating a Sacrament for the first time is an important step in the life of your child as a Catholic Christian. This year, your child will continue their faith journey in a very special way. It is a time of growth and understanding of how much mercy and love Jesus has for us.
       

    • Ready...

      This year is a little different (you know, a pandemic), but we are here to support you and your family. You are welcome to register for First Reconciliation  and First Communion at any time. Each sacrament has it's own online sacramental preparation program.  Once your child has completed the online First Reconciliation preparation, their Reconciliation date will be scheduled. Then when your child completes the online First Communion preparation, their First Communion date will be scheduled with you.  

      For your children's First Reconciliation, we will be asking that you and your child spend some time together preparing in the coming weeks using our online preparation website. You will work together through a guided program, at your own pace, and we will provide the supplies you need to make it fun.

      We will get to that after you register, but we want you to know that the preparation information that follows your registration is important so you and your child can prepare for this amazing Sacrament... and make it an exciting time for them and you!

      If you are registering in September 2021, we will focus on the Sacrament of Reconciliation this fall and we will connect with you in early 2022 about next steps for your child's First Communion.

      If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to email our Pastoral Minister, Betty Hompoth at bhompoth@dol.ca

    • Set...

      Here is our commitment to keep you and your family safe on the day of your child’s First Reconciliation:

      • Families will be scheduled to ensure physical distancing.
      • Everyone in the church will need to wear a mask.
      • Come 10 minutes early so we can screen each family member, and check your temperature.
      • Everyone will sanitize their hands using the automatic dispensers.
      • A member of our Hospitality Team will direct you and your child where to go to ensure physical distancing,
      • The child will sit at a safe physical distance during the Sacrament.
    • Go...

      Before we get to the preparation part of the journey, we need to register & pay.


      Register & Select a Date
      First, make sure you know two things (or ask your partner if they know!).

      (1) Do you know when and where your child was baptized? If it wasn't at Good Shepherd, St. William, or St Gregory's, do you have a copy of their Baptismal Certificate? If you can't find it, that's OK, you can let us know on the form.

      (2) At their baptism, you received a baptismal candle... can you find it? It's OK if it's a bin in the basement (no judgment!). If you don't have it, just let us know on the form and we will get you one.

      E-Transfer
      We ask for your help to offset the cost of the materials. Please send $40 to goodshepherd@dol.ca with Reconciliation/Communion in the memo line (no password needed). If you need to pay with cash or cheque, please call (519) 735-9517.
