One of the things for which we as Catholics are grateful is the sacraments of our faith. Sacraments are signs of God’s grace. They are ways in which God touches our lives and makes us more like Christ. We were honoured to have worked in conjunction with personnel from Ascension Parish as well as other parishes in the Diocese of Calgary where our students have been attending with their families.
On the afternoon of May 29th, we gathered as a school community to recognize and honour the students at St. Clare who received Sacraments in Baptism, Holy Communion, Reconciliation, and Confirmation at different points throughout the school year. The numbers of students from St. Clare receiving Sacraments this year was quite impressive as noted below.
Baptism – 11 Students
Holy Communion – 43 Students
Reconciliation – 46 Students
Confirmation - 32 Students
In celebration of these honours, students received commemorative Sacramental tokens, certificates and a special treat. We would like to congratulate all students involved in receiving their respective Sacraments at Ascension Parish and other parishes in the Diocese of Calgary.
