First Eucharist for Children

First Eucharist, also known as First Communion, is generally celebrated during early spring and usually occurs at the 2nd grade level. Parish policy requires children to attend a year of Faith Formation classes in preparation for this sacrament, and the Church requires the reception of First Penance before the reception of First Communion.


These First Communion classes are open to kids 2nd grade or older who have not yet received the Sacrament of First Communion. To sign up for First Communion prep, fill out a Faith Formation Registration form and return it to the office.


For more information, please contact the parish office at (417) 883-3440.
