The Sacrament of the Eucharist is celebrated at Holy Mass throughout the week.

Jesus comes to us in the Eucharist so that we will live for ever. Holy Communion is not ordinary food. It is the bread of eternal life. It is something more precious than gold or silver. It is worth more than anything you can imagine. For this sacred bread is the body and blood of Jesus. And Jesus promises that if you eat his flesh and drink his blood, you will have life in you and you will live forever.
~Pope John Paul II
Preparing your child for their First Reconciliation (Confession) and First Holy Communion is an exciting process and a memorable time of life for your little one. We want to give you the tools you need to help your child prepare their hearts and minds for these amazing encounters with God!
All Second-Graders desiring these sacraments must either participate in our family-based faith formation program “Family of Faith,” or be enrolled in Saint John's School.
Sacramental prep consists of two parent-child retreats, one information meeting, and some materials to review at home together, and a First Communion rehearsal.
Fees to cover expenses: $50 per student. Full scholarships are offered to anyone with need.
The child must be validly Baptized and Saint John's must be able to obtain proof of the sacrament from the Church of Baptism.
The parents must demonstrate their commitment to involvement with the preparation process by: attending the required meetings and practices, completing all preparation requirements, and providing on-going instruction and support as designated by the program director.
