Eucharist


Picture
Eucharist is where Jesus Christ shares himself with us.  We receive the Body and Blood of Christ.  Holy Eucharist is both a sacrifice and a sacrament.  As a sacrifice the Holy Eucharist is the Mass.  The act by which we receive the Holy Eucharist is called Holy Communion.

Children entering the 2nd Grade are eligible to prepare for this sacrament through our Religious Education classes that begin each fall.  First Communion for Religious Education students is usually the first Sunday in May.

Older children, youth, and adults, who have never received the Sacrament of Eucharist, are directed to the RCIA process.
