Receiving the Holy Eucharist is a milestone in the life of every Catholic. The Sacrament of Reconciliation is closely tied to the Eucharist, enabling us to partake of the Sacrifice of the Mass with a deeper, more intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.

 

Normally, First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion take place when a child is in the second grade, although they can occur at other times. To receive these sacraments, children must already be baptized in the Catholic Church and attend either religious education classes or a Catholic school. In addition, all students and their parents must attend a series of classes for First Reconciliation (fall) and First Holy Communion (spring).

 

There is a $30 fee to cover the cost of online curriculum materials associated with First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion. If you are enrolled in K-5 religious education, the fee for First Reconciliation/Communion is included.
