From 2021 the Catholic children who attend St Mary’s who wish to make their Confirmation, First Holy Communion and First Reconciliation will be prepared by the Parish of Our Lady of Kirkstall.

Catechists from the parish will meet with parents or carers to explain details about the preparation process, family catechesis and the resources which will be used. Please see the church bulletins for details or contact Amanda McDonnell at St Mary’s church office via email or via phone 0113 2678257. More information about the sacraments can be found here on the church website.
Please speak to Fr Michael or Fr Sean after Sunday Mass if you wish to enrol your child on to one of the first sacrament programs or email catechist.ourladyofkirkstall@dioceseofleeds.org.uk. 

The children making their sacraments are in our prayers.
