A Sacrament is a special sign of God's presence. Sacraments are God's gift to the church, and it is through these Sacraments that we fully become members of God's family. Candidates become part of the life and work of the community.

The Northern Beaches Parish Sacramental Program is family-based preparation. Families attend sessions guided by the Sacramental Co-ordinator, teachers or other parishioners.

Reconciliation:  for children from Year 3 onwards

Confirmation and First Eucharist/Holy Communion:  for children from Year 4 onwards.

2025 Parish Sacramental Program

Our parish Sacramental Program team is now seeking expressions of interest from families who would like to commit to attend this year's program. Please send your contact details to Anna Jimenez via email:  sacraments.nbp@cairns.catholic.org.au. Thank you and we look forward to hearing from you soon!

If a family is looking to start their child on his or her faith journey as a member of the Catholic faith and would like to enquire about Baptism, they can contact the Parish Secretary at northernbeaches.parish@cairns.catholic.org.au who will set up a plan for preparation with Fr Dariusz, the Parish Priest.
