Families with children who will prepare to celebrate  the  sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Eucharist for the first time: please review the preparation expectations below, and be sure to indicate which child(ren) will prepare for these sacraments this year on your registration form. Connect with Director of Faith Formation at any time by emailing DRE@princeofpeacecatholic.church. ​ 

First Reconciliation and First Holy Eucharist family preparation Guidelines:

• Children must be baptized in a Catholic Church; if not baptized at Prince of Peace Parish, families must submit a copy of each child’s baptism certificate. 

• Children must be in their 2nd consecutive year of Faith Formation  to prepare for the sacraments.  

• Parents and children are to complete First Reconciliation and First Communion workbook lessons at home as a family. 

• It is expected that all Faith Formation families attend Mass every Sunday; especially families preparing to celebrate a sacrament. 

"The Eucharist...
is not a prize
for the perfect
but a powerful
medicine for 
the weak."
