Upbringing in faith a child preparing for the first confession and the first Holy Communion in the light of selected documents of the Church

Abstract

Preparation for first confession and First Holy Communion is extremely important for a child acceding to these sacraments, as well as for his parents, so it must be done thoroughly. To be fruitful must be done on many levels. Undoubtedly, the most important of them is family life. This is because parents have the first obligation of raising a child in the faith and in the proper formation of religious and moral attitudes .To enable them to cope with this task, however, they also need a support of many institutions such as state and church. Among them an undeniable role is played by religious education in school and catechesis conducted in the parish as preparation for the sacraments of Christian initiation. It is important that the catechetical activities during preparations were equally directed to children and their parents.
