First Holy Communion

by

Sunday, October 31st 2021 – Feast of Christ the King

On the feast of Christ the King, titular feast of our Institute, a group of children in our community will receive the Eucharistic Lord for the first time. We all join the families of these young faithful in their joy and gratefulness. Please pray for our children, especially in preparation of this important day in their lives.

If you wish your child to participate in this year’s First Holy Communion, please contact Canon Wiener via details here.

First Communicants will meet with Canon Wiener in the presence of their mothers and/or fathers to answer fundamental but simple questions regarding the Church’s teaching about the Eucharist. Please make an appointment with Canon for the week of October 25th-30th.

First Confessions are possible daily (30 minutes before each Mass) or upon appointment.
