In the sascrament of penance we celebrate God's forgiving and healing love. In preparing children to celebrate the sacrament for the first time we have the wonderful opportunity to open them to the joy of God's unconditional love and mercy. On the webpage are resources to support this opportunity; from information regarding current published programmes to resources for prayer and liturgy for catechists and for the support of parents in their role as the 'first and best' teachers of the faith.
