Answer explanation

Sacrament of Reconciliation should be replaced with Sacrament of Holy Communion

The final sacrament of initiation is the Sacrament of Holy Communion, and Catholics believe that it is the only one of the three that we can (and should) receive repeatedly—even daily, if possible. In Holy Communion, we consume the Body and Blood of Christ, which unites us more closely to Him and helps us to grow in grace by living a more Christian life.

In the East, Holy Communion is administered to infants immediately after the sacraments of baptism and confirmation. In the West, Holy Communion is normally delayed until the child reaches the age of reason (around seven years old).
