What a gift it is to be able to encounter Christ through the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Communion! We are happy to welcome you and assist in any way we can. We invite you to contact us if you have any questions.
First Communion traditionally takes place when children are in the 2nd Grade. We encourage families with children in 3rd Grade through High School who haven't received their First Communion to register those children for preparation as well.
For First Communion preparation, we have combined sacrament preparation classes with the Family Faith Formation program to make it easier for families with multiple children. With the exception of a few extra parent meetings, the First Communion calendar will follow the same calendar as the Family Faith Formation program.
All students preparing for First Communion in Grades 2nd-7th must also register in the Family Faith Formation Program. When filling out the registration form, select both First Communion and Family Faith Formation. In the payment section, you will need to pay both registration fees for Family Faith Formation and First Communion.
First Communion registration is closed for the 2023-24 school year. We would encourage families to enroll their students in the Family Faith Formation program to begin preparation now to receive the sacraments next year.
