“The Lord is kind and merciful” (Psalm 103). The Sacrament of Reconciliation gives us the opportunity to express sorrow for the things we have done wrong and receive healing. Our hearts are open to the endless love and mercy of God. We have a great opportunity and responsibility to continually examine our lives, seek forgiveness and return to God and the Church. He is always waiting for us!

Reconciliation is held on Wednesday evenings from 6:00-6:30 PM or Saturday mornings at 10:00 AM in the Chapel or upon request at Father John’s or Father Dan's availability. If it has been several years since receiving the Sacrament or if you have questions for either of our priests about the Sacrament, we recommend that you schedule an appointment.

First Sacraments Preparation:
Do you desire the Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Sacrament of Eucharist for your child?

Sacrament Preparation at Saint Patrick Parish puts parents at the center - parents prepare their child for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist, typically starting in 1st grade.

Our preparation process:
1-Weekly Mass participation according to the precepts of the Catholic Church
2-Community opportunities for kids and parents to gather together to talk about faith
3-At home, families use resources to learn about and grow in faith
