First Sacraments of Reconciliation and First Eucharist
Preparing for First Eucharist is an eight month, two-part process, which starts in October with preparation for the Sacrament of First Reconciliation (Confession). Children must complete First Reconciliation preparation to receive First Eucharist. To enroll their children, parents must agree to complete at-home lessons, attend the Parent Meetings, and be present to experience the Sacrament of Reconciliation, First Eucharist rehearsal and Weekly Mass. See below for a more detailed description of the process and requirements.
Registration is open to registered parishioner families with children in grades 2 through 5 who were baptized Catholic.
Each child is required to be registered online and attend weekly Mass with their families.
We will begin in the Church with Father Zipp to learn more about the Liturgy of the Eucharist. We will then have the students move into the classroom for a lesson with our catechists, followed by a snack and the First Eucharist Banner making project. - This is a required event.
