Beginning July 2021 St. Boniface Catholic Church implemented the “Restored Order” per Bishop Paprocki. This simply refers to celebrating the sacraments of initiation in the order in which God designed them to be given baptism, confirmation, first Eucharist. It also restores the practice of administering the sacraments of confirmation and first Eucharist when they reach the age of reason.

In Second Grade your children will prepare for the sacrament of reconciliation and begin going to confession.  In Third Grade, they will prepare for confirmation and first Eucharist, and receive both sacraments at the same Mass held at our Mother Church, Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Springfield.

Additional information regarding the “restored order” can be found on:  https://dio.org/confirmation/letter-from-bishop-paprocki/
