70 Years - Belong - Believe - Become
The Holy Eucharist is one of the sacraments of Christian initiation. The Eucharist is the heart and summit of the Church's life. It is the memorial of Christ's Passover, that is, of the work of salvation accomplished by the life, death and resurrection of Christ. The essential signs of the Eucharistic sacrament are bread and wine, on which the blessing of the Holy Spirit is invoked. By consecration of the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ, Christ himself, living and glorious, is present in a true real manner.
Jesus said: " I am the bread that comes down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he live for ever;...he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has life eternal and...abides in me and I in them." (Jn 6:51.54.56)
The Sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Communion will be administered to students in Grade 2 and higher. First Eucharist will take place shortly after Easter in the spring of 2024; First Reconciliation (Confession) must precede First Eucharist.
Registration packages can be found at the back of the church and the parish office in early September of 2023. Online registration is also available on the website under 1st Reconciliation. Only one registration form is required for both the sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist.
