Our Lady of Loretto’s 3rd grade class and those students from upper grades, who have not made their FHC, are especially prepared during the school year to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Sacrament of First Holy Communion, which are regularly scheduled in May or after Easter. Students that wish to receive First Communion, must complte the requirements set forth by the church, and attend First Communion Practice.
A Penance Service is prepared prior to the reception of these Sacraments, which are prepared by the 3rd Grade Teacher with the collaboration of the Parish Priest or his Associate Priest.
Students from grades 3-8 are invited to take the opportunity to practice the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) on scheduled days by the Parish priests.
