First Eucharist

First Eucharist is prepared for and received during the second grade and is done in conjunction with preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Parents and children will work together throughout the year to prepare for these sacraments. Children and parents are also required to be enrolled in GIFT at least one year prior to second grade. Since faith development is an ongoing journey, continued involvement in faith formation (GIFT) beyond reception of First Eucharist is highly encouraged. For more information, click here.

Confirmation

Juniors in high school or any youth at least 16 years of age who has participated in Christian formation or Catholic high school may begin preparation for this sacrament. As with all sacramental preparation programs youth must be in formation for at least the entire year prior to the year the sacrament is celebrated. The process consists of formation sessions, service, an interview, choosing a sponsor, a three-day retreat, and a commitment to prayer and faith sharing. Confirmation is celebrated in the spring.

Anointing of the Sick

Celebrated on the first Saturday of the month, following the 5:00 pm liturgy. In other times of need, request anointing from the presider prior to any weekend liturgy.
