An opportunity to unpack the current realities facing families, catechists and sacramental programs. Through using current Diocesan documents as guides, participants will connect with fellow sacramental leaders to share their experiences. We will be exploring Confirmation and First Eucharist, in connection to baptism as Sacraments of Initiation for our local Church.  Two relevant scripture stories will be shared through the process of Godly Play. Time and space will be provided to explore future initiatives, including how the document “Drawn into the Joy of the Gospel” inspires, nourishes and enlivens our work with children and their families.

A sacramental team from within the Adelaide Archdiocese will present and share a detailed overview of the program that they deliver, detailing the roles and responsibilities of each member, examples of the activities they facilitate and the ways in which they have modified and adapted their program to suit the changing needs of the families.

During afternoon tea, an opportunity will be provided to visit and explore the Catholic Resource Information Service (CRIS).

All participants are invited to bring and share a photograph or item of significance from their own sacramental journey.

A light morning tea and lunch will be provided by the Catholic Education Office.
