First Penance

Children at least 7 years of age and in the 2nd grade prepare in class and with their families to receive First Penance ​

The second Sacrament a child receives if they were baptized as an infant is the Sacrament of Reconciliation (also called Confession). This is done when the child reaches the age of reason, about 7 years old or second grade.

​To enroll your child at Our Lady of Pompeii Faith Formation in preparation for Reconciliation, please email or call Debbie Pirog at (716) 683-6522, ext. 107
