As
parents have the responsibility to be the "first
teachers" of their children and the "decision
makers" for when their children are prepared to share in
the Eucharist, they can use some help. To aid parents with these
rights and duties, a catechesis for First Eucharist is presented
to children 7 years of age through our Religious Education
Classes. |

 |
Along with this formal instruction, a program
focusing on growth in prayer, spiritual growth and family experience is
an integral component in the overall preparation of the First
Communicants. Parents are required to attend a Parent Session, use the
growth experiences and prayers at home, attend the Retreat and
practice session and celebrate First Eucharist with their children. |
