A Child's First Penance
DVD

Fr. Jim Deiters introduces the sacrament by explaining how and why we celebrate the Rite of Reconciliation. First penitents will listen in as Fr. Jim talks with students about sin, true repentance, and god's unconditional love and forgiveness. As they learn what sin is, they will discover how their sin affects others and changes their relationship with God. They'll explore the prayers, rituals, and gestures of the rite--and learn why reconciliation is a time for repentance, healing and joy. Parents will learn how the rite has changed over the years and recognize their essential role in teaching and modeling the faith for their children. Part 1: For Children: Preparing for Your First Reconciliation; Part 2: A Tour of the Reconciliation Chapel; Part 3: For Parents and Adults: Preparing for the Sacrament with Your Child. Total run time: 40 minutes. (©2012)
