SACRAMENTS - Baptism Reconciliation First Communion Confirmation Marriage Holy Orders Anointing the Sick Funerals Calendar
First Communion![]() “The Eucharist is the efficacious sign and sublime cause of that communion in the divine life and that unity of the People of God by which the Church is kept in being. It is the culmination both of God’s action sanctifying the world in Christ and of the worship men offer to Christ and through him to the Father in the Holy Spirit.” “Finally, by the Eucharistic celebration we already unite ourselves with the heavenly liturgy and anticipate eternal life, when God will be all in all.” “In brief, the Eucharist is the sum and summary of our faith: “Our way of thinking is attuned to the Eucharist, and the Eucharist in turn confirms our way of thinking.” – Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1324-1327 Sacramental Prep for first confession and first communion includes participation in Faith Formation classes which begin in September.
