First Holy Communion

Our Parish prepares children for the sacrament of First Holy Communion in 2nd grade.

Children in Grade 2 of our parish who have been in Family Program or the parish school since 1st grade are invited to prepare to receive the sacrament of First Holy Communion.


Parents help their children to prepare for this special sacrament by bringing them to weekly Mass and attending parent/child preparation sessions as well as completing a workbook at home.


Preparation typically begins in January with the celebrations in April and/or May.
