Sacrament of Reconciliation

My baby made her First Sacrament of Reconciliation on Saturday morning. For those of you not Catholic, this was her very first Confession. They use to do it where Reconciliation and First Communion were together, but now they separate the two Sacraments. It turned out so nice. She got to share the day with her good friends, Nicollette, Lana and Morgan. Vincent's Baseball game was cancelled, so the Grandparents got to join in.


 


After Isabella did her Reconciliation with Father Mike, we went to station 1 where we washed her hands in Holy Water and prayed over her. Chris and I then washed each other's hands in Holy Water and prayed over each other. At Station 2, Isabella removed her name tag and placed it on the Reconciliation poster. She then received a lamb pin that says Jesus on it while I read a special prayer.


The final station was her "Love Letter" station. Chris, myself and her Godmother Aunt Amy all wrote her special notes telling her how special she is and how proud we are of her.


We had breakfast after at Guasti and it turned out to be a very blessed day!
