First Communion and Confirmation Calendar 2016-17 |
Sacrament Preparation is a two year program at Our Lady of the Angels. The same model as Family Catechesis is used with parents/guardians participating in the process.
Year Two - First Communion and Confirmation The Phoenix Diocese celebrates the Restored Sequence of Initiation. Students will receive the sacrament of Confirmation first and then receive First Holy Communion, all at the same mass in the spring. The Diocese provides the dates for the liturgy, which will be announced as soon as they are available. Requirements:
*This should be completed in year one ** Completion of 8 (of 12) Family Catechesis sessions. Pick and choose which dates, topics and activities work best for your family. |
