First Communion

Primarily a home preparation program using Pflaum’s Together With Jesus, families join in larger group activities over the course of the 5-month preparation period. Both the Rite of Enrollment and the sacrament occur on Sunday at the 10am Mass. Additionally, participants share a Seder meal, learn experientially and reflect on the significance of the Eucharist at a retreat and rehearsal.
