This year 2nd grade will be preparing for 1st Reconciliation and 1st Eucharist. As part of sacrament preparation, students will be expected to memorize the Act of Contrition.
Act of Contrition
My God,
I am sorry for my sins with all my heart.
In choosing to do wrong
and failing to do good,
I have sinned against you
whom I should love above all things.
I firmly intend, with your help,
to do penance,
to sin no more,
and to avoid whatever leads me to sin.
Our Savior Jesus Christ
suffered and died for us.
In his name, my God, have mercy.
