First Eucharist or First Communion

For Students in Year 4 who have been baptised Catholic.

Catholics believe that the Eucharist or Communion is a celebration of Christ’s love for his church. It is the memorial of his Last Supper, death and Resurrection where consecrated bread is broken and shared to provide a profound source of union between God and us. Pope Francis tells us that Holy Communion is “an encounter with Jesus, who is our constant companion in life.”

More information and booking details will follow via the Parish. 

Please don't hesitate to contact the parish or me if you have any further questions. Contact details are provided at the top of this page.

Kind Regards,
