Has Your Child Received the Sacraments?
St. Joseph Parish has switched over to a family-based approach to lifelong faith formation! In addition, the Diocese of New Hampshire is implementing "Restored Order." (Click Here to learn more about Restored Order of the Sacraments of Initiation) What does this mean? In brief, it means our Sacramental Prep is now a 2-year parent-led program. Year 1 culminates with the Sacrament of Reconciliation (normally to be received at the end of your child's second grade year), and Year 2 culminates with the reception of Confirmation and First Holy Communion in the same Mass (normally to be received at the end of your child's third grade year).
