First Communion takes place in Grade 3. In late January and early February, parents attend one of two Parent Workshops offered to help them prepare their children for this sacrament. Students and their families come together at the Mass of Enrollment in February. Students are prepared at home and their lessons are reinforced in their Family Faith Formation sessions.
In May, final preparations are made during the First Communion Retreat. On the Saturday before Mother’s Day, the Sacrament of First Communion is celebrated!
Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them.
