1st Communion

“Holy Eucharist is the Sacrament in which Jesus Christ gives his Body and Blood – himself – for us, so that we too might give ourselves to him in love and be united with him in Holy Communion. In this way we are joined with the one Body of Christ, the Church.” (YouCat 208)

The mystery of Holy Eucharist is at the center of our faith, it is the “source and summit of the Christian life” (Second Vatican Council, Lumen gentium, 11). When we eat the broken Bread, we unite ourselves with the love of Jesus, who gave his body for us on the wood of the Cross; when we drink from the chalice, we unite ourselves with him who even poured out his blood out of love for us (YouCat 208).

The Sacrament of 1st Communion is done in conjunction with the Sacrament of First Reconciliation. It is available for children who are at least 7 years old or in Grade 2.

We begin with First Reconciliation classes which start in September/beginning of October. There will be 5 in-person classes between September - December.  The Sacrament will be celebrated on Saturday, December 13th, 2025.   

The children will then prepare for First Holy Communion classes in January.  There will be 7 in-person classes between January - April.  The children will stay in the same class as First Reconciliation. The Sacrament will be celebrated on April 19th and April 26th. 

Families choose one class time for their child: 

  • Tuesdays - 6:15 -7:30pm or 
  • Thursdays - 6:15 -7:30pm or 
  • Saturdays - 10:15 - 11:30am 

Classes are for children only and will be held upstairs in the Catholic Women's League Room (East entrance, by Parish Office). 

Space is limited to 25 children per class.  Cost: $40 (Children will receive the Go Seek Find: Discover God's Treasures kit)
