Third Graders are preparing to celebrate the sacrament of First Eucharist, along with Confirmation, this spring. Preparation for the sacraments occurs during Religious Education classes. Parent meetings will also be held during Religious Ed classes for parents of third graders.
First Communion and the New Restored Order Sacramental Program
Begining in the Fall of 2018, the Diocese of Manchester is restoring the order in which children receive the Sacraments of Initiation. Children will receive Confirmation and their First Holy Communion at the same Mass in the third grade (providing they have successfully completed two full years of Faith Formation at the parish and/or Catholic School).
