Eucharist

The sacrament of First Eucharist takes place after first Reconciliation (Penance).

The First Eucharist preparation program consists of Faith Formation classes, and a retreat with children and parents. First Eucharist is usually held in the Spring of second grade. Please contact the Faith Formation Office at Lori.Murtaugh@dor.org with any questions!

The Eucharist in the Catholic Church is a sacrament celebrated as "the source and summit" of the Christian life. The Eucharist is celebrated daily during the celebration of Mass, the eucharistic liturgy. For more information on the Eucharist, click here.
