First Eucharist

As all sacramental programs are parish-based, it is normally the case that Sacraments are received in the parish where you live or the parish where you worship and are involved. These programs are also family-based, so both parents and children are involved in the preparation.

In the program there are parent education and formation segments. As well, there are combined classes with the parents and children conducted by parish facilitators. Also, there is preparation that should be conducted at home.

These programs are generally held in the first half of the year and are open to children in Year 3 and above at school. The dates of these programs are published in the parish bulletin or you may contact the Parish Office.

To be prepared for the Sacrament of First Holy Communion a person must have received the Sacrament of Baptism and the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
