Growing in Grace Through the Sacraments
The sacraments are a vital part of each student’s spiritual formation and personal growth. Whether students are deepening their existing relationship with the Church or preparing to enter into full communion for the first time, we walk with them on their journey. The sacraments offer grace, direction, and a deeper sense of identity rooted in Christ and the Catholic tradition.
Sacramental Preparation and OCIA
Students who have not yet received Baptism, First Communion, or Confirmation are invited to participate in our Order of Christian Initiation for Adolescents (OCIA). Preparation typically begins in January and includes small-group formation sessions, mentorship, and liturgical experiences that guide students through their sacramental journey. We work closely with families and local parish communities to ensure each student receives both spiritual and personal support throughout the process.
Living the Sacraments Daily
While some students may be receiving sacraments for the first time, all are encouraged to reflect on how the sacraments shape daily life. Opportunities for Reconciliation are offered regularly on campus, and students attend Mass weekly and on holy days as a community. These consistent practices help students understand that the sacraments are not one-time events, but lifelong encounters with God’s grace.
