This is a special year for your daughter, son and family. Faith is passed on from one generation to the next & your mission in handing on the treasure of faith is of great value. As soon as the schools reopen & I have an opportunity to meet with the teachers, I will organise a meeting with yourselves to arrange the preparation programmme for the sacraments & see what dates will suit you all. In the meantime, if you would like to enroll your child(ren) for the sacrament(s), can you please complete the form attached Communion:  Balyna Parish Communion Request Form 2027  Confirmation: Balyna Parish Confirmation Request Form 2027 and return to the parish office. If your child was baptised outside the Parish of Balyna, could you please include a copy of their Baptism Certificate. Looking forward to meeting you all mid-September. Fr. Brian
