FIRST COMMUNION / FIRST CONFESSION
Baptized students age 7 and up are eligible to prepare for First Sacraments. We begin in the fall with First Reconciliation formation which includes two classes and one retreat. In the spring, two classes and a retreat focus on First Communion formation. All preparation classes are mandatory for parent and child in tandem with weekly faith formation (Faith Works).
Faith Works is Bremerton Catholic's Lectionary based Religious Education Program open to all children in Grades PreK-5.
Faith Works offers children a new and fun way to learn about their faith outside of a typical classroom setting. Faith Works is fully Catholic in its teaching and provides the opportunity for families to live and discuss the Gospel on a weekly basis.
​Faith Works meets weekly from 6:00-7:45pm on Wednesdays, mid September through May.
