We are excited to help your child receive Jesus in the Eucharist. For most children, First Holy Communion happens in the 2nd grade and instruction is part of the overall religious education program. They will also receive their First Confession during this year. The First Communion Mass is normally held on the Feast of Corpus Christi in June. However this year our First Communion will take place on Sunday May 4th at our 8:00 am Mass in conjunction with May Crowning.
When you register your 2nd grader for Faith Formation classes, they are already enrolled in this preparation. You can find more information about enrollment in our child catechetical program here. If you would prefer to conduct your child's sacrament preparation at home instead of here at St. Peter's please fill out the form linked below.

If your child received the Sacrament of Baptism at a parish other than St. Peter's their Baptismal Certificate must be turned in prior to reception of these sacraments. Please scan/attach a copy to Deacon Ralph Lira at D[email protected]
