Reconciliation is a sacrament of getting our lives right with God. The Catechism of the Catholic Church #1422 states, “Those who approach the sacrament of Penance obtain pardon from God’s mercy for the offense committed against him, and are, at the same time, reconciled with the Church which they have wounded by their sins and which by charity, by example, and by prayer labors for their conversion.”
Reconciliation is the Church’s way of celebrating what God does in, with and through human persons. Reconciliation is a means of celebrating the forgiveness of God that is extended to all when persons turn back to God through the conversion process. Here at Saint Paul, we celebrate the sacrament in the second grade.
Preparation for the sacrament is done in the classroom with their teacher. For children not attending the school there is religious education for sacrament preparation. To learn more contact Director of Religious Education, Amy Decker at 502-935-1223.
