Looking Back
Reflection Questions

Looking back on any significant event always gives us greater awareness and appreciation for the past experience. The same is true with your child's celebration of Confirmation and Eucharist. Through reflection on the experience and the rituals of the sacraments, we are able to clarify and deepen the meaning of the celebration of the sacraments.
