First Reconciliation and First Communion

Sacrament prep for First Reconciliation and First Communion normally takes place during the 2nd grade. Families will receive workbooks for children and a Family guides for parents to prepare their child for the sacraments. Short meetings will be scheduled during the year with parents and children to check on progress. In the spring, families will come to church for a Reflection Morning. Parents will receive the sacrament before their child as a witness prior to their child celebrating their First Reconciliation.

The Reflection morning will also include preparation for First Communion. Children will make a banner and taste an unconsecrated host. On First Communion day, children will be seated with their peers when they receive this precious Sacrament on Sunday, April 28, 2024 during 10:30 a.m. Mass at St. Mary, Milton.
