Confirmation & First Communion
Sacramental Program
In keeping with the Archdiocese of Brisbane’s guidelines for the Sacraments of Initiation for Children, the Sacramental Program at Our Lady Of Lourdes Sunnybank Parish is both Family centred, Parish based and School-supported. Essentially, this program is a partnership in which families, school and the Parish community work together in the preparation and celebration of these Sacraments – Confirmation, First Communion and Penance. Children in this context can learn what it is to be a Catholic.
The parish offers a program that combines individual and group preparation. This culminates with a session with the Parish Priest to ensure all candidates are satisfactorily prepared and then a rehearsal will be held before receiving their sacrament.
