First Communion




The Eucharist is the source and summit of Christian Life. The other sacraments, indeed, all the ministries and apostolic works of the Church, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it. For in the blessed Eucharist is contained the whole spiritual good of the Church, namely, Christ Himself. Baptized children who are 7 years of age (second grade) are prepared for First Eucharist by their parents and catechists in conjunction with Parish Faith Formation Program.

Children over 7 (third grade and above) are prepared by special arrangement with the Faith Formation Department.
