The Office for Evangelization and Catechesis at the Diocese of Hamilton continues to provide the Catechetical Correspondence Courses that provide solid foundational catechesis along with helpful preparation for First Reconciliation and Communion, and Confirmation. This past fall, they began using the new program One Faith, One Lord for all Confirmation preparation (replacing the Confirmed in the Spirit program).
Parents whose children are preparing for Sacraments in 2021 are encouraged to register online at www.hamiltondiocese.com or contact the Office for Evangelization and Catechesis directly for more information:

For families who have already registered for our 2021 First Communion and First Reconciliation Sacraments and have sent in their completed paperwork, a link to book an appointment for First Reconciliation will be emailed.
Parents/Guardians can choose an available time on our booking calendar which is provided in the link.
Once a child has finished their First Reconciliation they can make their First Communion.
First Communion dates/times will be further communicated with all those who have pre-registered.
To help your child to prepare for First Reconciliation, please take a look at our videos below which describe what happens at First Reconciliation.

Please see our document to the left of our page which describes what your child needs to do when they meet the Priest for their First Confession.

The information includes what they need to say during their First Reconciliation, and what they need to do to prepare in advance of the Sacrament.
