Eucharist

First Eucharist (First Holy Communion)

Jesus said, “I am the living bread that came down from heaven” (John 6:51), and every time we go to mass and receive Jesus in the Eucharist, He miraculously is with us. Receiving Jesus for the first time is typically celebrated in the second grade; special arrangements are made for older children to receive this sacrament.   

If your child is in the second grade or above and is in the second continuous year of Faith Formation or the second continuous year of religion classes in Catholic School, you may register your child for First Eucharist Prep. Please use the link below for more information.
