Second grade is a very special time at St. Margaret Mary.  As the students grow in their love for Jesus, they receive preparation for the sacraments of Penance and First Eucharist during their religion classes. First Penance usually takes place in February, while First Eucharist is celebrated in May. The sacramental prep program is run in collaboration with parish Director of Religious Education Misty Bauer. At St. Margaret Mary, we strive to make the sacraments true encounters with God.
