The Sacramental life of the children of the Catholic faith is an important component of the religion/theology program at Mount Carmel School.
In accordance with diocesan guidelines, candidates for First Holy Communion will receive the sacrament of Reconciliation prior to First Holy Communion.
Parents are required to be active partners in the preparation of their children for these sacraments. Sacraments of Reconciliation or Communion may be given from their own parish however, certification should be provided from the parish on the sacrament received.
