Formal preparation for First Communion is a two-year process, usually culminating in the reception of the Sacrament in May of their second school year.

Children need to be enrolled in Parish Religious Education classes or have attended a Catholic school for both 1st and 2nd grades. Children starting after 1st grade will need to complete two years of preparation

Parents can learn more about First Holy Communion and First Reconciliation for their children here.

Adults who are beginning their journey toward becoming Catholic or have not received all Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Eucharist, Confirmation) are enrolled in RCIA - Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults .

Adults enrolled in RCIA will receive their First Eucharist at the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday along with the other Sacraments of Initiation.
