Lent is a time of sacrifice, but Lent with little ones (or medium ones, or older ones) can seem like sacrifice with an extra helping of penance. Why?

When parents had their child baptized, they promised to raise him or her to learn and experience Our Catholic Faith. The Sacrament of Reconciliation is one of those steps in fulfilling that promise.

For this reason, it is important for parents to inform themselves concerning what the Church teaches about reconciliation and how best to communicate those teachings ot our children.
Now completely redesigned with a fresh new look and feel, 8-page Catholic Parent Know-How: First Reconciliation gives parents the confidence to communicate Church teachings on Reconciliation to their child.
