This sacrament heals, gives God’s forgiveness with the love and comfort of the Lord.

The Parish Priests offer both individual and communal rites.

First Rite (individual penitent and priest) is available each Saturday morning at 11:30am (prior to 12pm mass), or by individual arrangement.

Communal rites (second rite) are celebrated at times such as Lent and Advent.  The community prepares a liturgical celebration of God’s Word and Song.

Children are prepared for their First Reconciliation when they are in year 2 (or above) through a parish-based program.

Small groups meet in homes with a parent leader over a number of weeks.  There is an enrolment during Mass prior to the program.

The celebration is the communal rite in small groups celebrated over two weeks in Term IV.
