We hope that this was a wonderful moment of grace in their lives, and that they will continue to grow in their love and faith in Jesus, present on the most Blessed Sacrament. 

Sacrament of Confirmation

This year, at the request of Bishop Martin, the Sacrament of Confirmation will be celebrated with the other schools of our Parish. OLSC students will be Confirmed with students from St John the Apostle and Bethany Primary Schools. This will be held at MacKillop College, at 1pm on Saturday 8th August

 

Your child is preparing for the Sacrament as part of their Religious Education studies this term and next. An important part of this preparation is the participation in a Family Sacramental Evening. This will take place Wednesday 29th July in the OLSC Sports Centre, from 6.30-7.30pm. Attendance at this evening is compulsory, as the program is designed to deepen the faith and understanding of all within the family to allow the Sacrament to be celebrated with reverence and understanding.

 

We also request that you attend the two Community Masses prior to Confirmation, 21st June and 19th July, as part of the preparation for your child’s Sacrament. The Community Masses are held in the OLSC Sports Centre at 10am. 

 

As part of their preparation for the Sacrament, candidates will be receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation at school, on Wednesday 29th July as part of their Spirituality Day. We request that all candidates be present at school that day.
