In the Sacrament of Reconciliation, Jesus “personally addresses every sinner: My son, your sins are forgiven.” (CCC, 1484) We encourage all Catholics to receive this sacrament frequently. St. Pius X offers opportunities throughout the week for you to participate in this powerful Sacrament. The current schedule is on the homepage of the website.
If you have been away from this Sacrament for a while or just want to learn more about this Sacrament, we encourage you to watch this brief video from Fr. Mike Schmitz.
For children entering 2nd Grade or higher, we offer the preparation to receive the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist (Holy Communion). Children must be enrolled in either a Catholic school or in a Faith Formation class during their preparation year. Families of students who are registered at the parish or in our Faith Formation program will be contacted with Sacramental registration information in the fall. Contact Shawn Gutowski if you have any questions regarding First Reconciliation and Eucharist.
