First Holy Communion Preparation Programme
|
The Eucharist (also known as Mass or Holy Communion) is the Sacrament celebrated most regularly in our parish, nourishing us with the Body and Blood of Jesus to go out and serve him in our neighbours.
Children normally celebrate their First Holy Communion after the age of 7 (School Year 3). Traditionally this takes place near the feast of The Body and Blood of Christ (Corpus Christi) in June, after a 10-month preparation programme. |

If you are an adult from another Christian denomination interested in becoming a Catholic, you are invited to enrol in the RCIA programme.
The First Holy Communion programme helps form faith and friendships.
