First Eucharist Preparation

The faith journey continues as the participant receives the Body and Blood of Christ.

First Eucharist (First Communion) is celebrated on three occasions in late winter and early spring.

Children are invited to the Sacrament when they are in the second grade or have reached the age of 7.

Children receiving First Eucharist (First Communion) need to be prepared to receive First Reconciliation (Confession). Preparation for First Reconciliation (Confession) begins early fall each year.
