SHARE YOUR TALENT
Many of us have done readings and have studied particular areas of our faith, such as Mary and Marian devotions, lives of the saints, church history, liturgy, etc. If you would like to share your knowledge with people who are learning about the Catholic Church, please contact Deacon Bill Payne at deaconbill@catholicshrineatlanta.org.

SACRAMENTAL PREPARATION
The Archdiocesan guidelines specify that the preparation and reception of the sacraments is as follows:

Reconciliation / Penance: 2nd Grade
1st Holy Communion: 2nd Grade
Confirmation: 10th Grade

Candidates must be active participants in the School of Religion for the full year in which the sacrament is to be received. If you know of any young person who meets the above criteria and is not currently registered, encourage them to see Deacon Bart, or call (678)580-5946.
