Parish children in the second grade enter into preparation for First Eucharist. Preparation includes instruction about the Mass and prayers, and lessons related to the Eucharist.

Along with the Sacrament of Baptism, First Holy Communion is one of the three sacraments of initiation. It is through these sacraments of initiation that we become full members of the church. It is during First Holy Communion that we receive the Holy Eucharist for the first time. The Holy Eucharist refers to Christ’s body, blood, soul, and Divinity truly present in the consecrated host and wine on the altar.
