First Eucharist Program Pam Walsh pwalsh@saintannechurchnh.org
The First Eucharist Program (Grade 2)
First Holy Communion, preceded by First Reconciliation, is usually celebrated at the end of the second year of a child's participation in our religious education programs.
1. An essential element of preparation for First Eucharist is that those
preparing for the Sacrament
celebrate Sunday Eucharist regularly with
the parish family and that they continue celebrating Sunday Eucharist
after First Eucharist.
2. Children are prepared at home by the parents in collaboration with our
parish catechist program. The first Eucharist packet is given out at the parents meeting
