CONFIRMING OUR CHILDREN MASSES
Next weekend, we begin our Confirmation Preparation program, Confirming Our Children.
For these Masses, the confirmation candidates and their parents will assist at Mass with the readings, prayers, serving and other ways in reflecting and preparing them for the Sacrament of Confirmation in the Spring.
Let us pray for all those preparing for all the sacraments that this will be a time of renewal and discovery of the faith which we are happy to share and encourage them to develop their gifts and talents further. Details for the students and parents will be given in the school.
In Touraneena, both 2nd and 6th Class will come together with their parents for Family Mass
