Sacramental Prep Policy:
In compliance with Archdiocesan policy and recommendations for the preparation and reception of the Sacraments, St. Patrick requires that any candidate receiving the Sacraments of Confirmation, First Reconciliation, and First Eucharist must be actively involved in age-appropriate Religious Education for a minimum of 1 year prior to beginning preparation for the Sacraments. The candidates must have regular attendance in our programs. Additionally, it will be expected that each candidate will continue to be involved in age-appropriate classes and regularly attend weekend Mass during the period of Preparation for the Sacrament.
