The Sacraments of First Reconciliation & First Holy Communion

The sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Communion are traditionally celebrated in Grade 2. The Catholic Church believes that by the age of 7 most children are capable of understanding the importance of reconciliation with God and are ready to receive the Eucharist.

FIRST COMMUNION CELEBRATIONS - JUNE 2023

The Grade 2 students from our six elementary schools are currently preparing to receive the sacrament of First Holy Communion. Six celebrations are happening on June 3rd and June 10th. We also have our Parent & Child meeting coming up on Thursday, April 27th at 6:30PM as well as rehearsals on May 25th (6:30pm), May 26th (6:30pm) and May 27th (11AM) here at St. Paul's.

If you have not registered your child for their sacraments and still wish for them to receive this year, please complete the registration by email IMMEDIATELY. Please click here to access the complete registration package as well as the 2-page registration form.
