First Eucharist

In order to properly prepare for the sacrament, it is expected that all children preparing for First Eucharist participate in regular religious education thru the parish’s Religious Education program or by attending a Catholic school in the county. Reception of First Eucharist is in the second grade. However, preparation for the sacrament begins with participation in a religius education program one year prior to the sacramental year. All children celebrate the sacrament for the first time during the Easter season. See Calendars for Meeting dates.
