Holy Communion
Children in our school or Religious Education program prepare and then receive the sacrament of their First Holy Communion in the spring of their second grade. Adults who wish to receive the Sacrament of Holy Communion, will do so through RCIA.
Preparing for First Communion
Full, conscious and active participation (Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy #14) at Sunday Eucharist every week is the most powerful and most significant means parents have for preparing their child to receive Communion for the first time. Good Sunday habits provide the foundation for a Sacramental life and is expected of all our First Communicants.
Application
The First Communion Application and $20 sacrament fee is due no later than March 3, 2021.
