Welcome to preparation for First Eucharist
(Communion) for Children

This sacrament prepares all second graders and above to receive Jesus for the first time. Parents are their first teachers and we are here to help you complete this mission. We will be counting on you to impress upon your child the importance of learning about Jesus. Please communicate with us about anything that we can do to help your child through this process. Our goal is to have a fully expectant, fully prepared child, ready to receive our Lord’s Body and Blood in the Sacrament of 1st Eucharist.
