CCD (Confraternity of Christian Doctrine) is our religious education program that provides catechesis and spiritual formation to students in grades Kindergarten through 8. This ministry also provides the sacramental preparation for First Confession and First Holy Communion in 2nd Grade, and Confirmation in 8th Grade. The parish policy regarding sacrament preparation is: "The family of a child preparing to receive First Confession, First Holy Communion or Confirmation must be active members in good standing at Sacred Heart Church. A two-year minimum of religious instruction at the parish prior to the reception of First Confession, First Holy Communion or Confirmation is required."
