The two years spent preparing to receive First Communion is a special time in the life of a child. They are taught about their faith (at an age-appropriate level), make friends, and are prepared to receive the Sacrament of the Eucharist.
The best time for a child to start First Communion classes is in first grade, but we also offer classes for those who are starting later. Classes are offered for those in grades 1-2, for those in grades 3-5, and for those in grades 6 and higher.
For the 2023-2024 year, First Communion classes (for grades 1-2 and 3-5) are on Tuesday evenings from 6:00 to 7:15 pm, beginning September 19th and running through late April.
The First Communion class for grades 6 and higher is on Wednesday evenings from 6:00 pm to 7:15 pm, beginning September 27th and running through late April.

The Holy Spirit bestows seven gifts upon someone who receives the Sacrament of Confirmation: an increase in Wisdom, Understanding, Right Judgment, Courage, Knowledge, Piety, and Wonder and Awe.
Typically, a student begins Confirmation classes as they enter middle school, but they are welcome to participate through their mid-teens. (For an adult, preparation for Confirmation should be completed through the RCIA program.)
For the 2023-2024 year, Confirmation classes are on Wednesday evenings from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm.
Confirmation I classes begin September 27th.
Confirmation II classes begin August 30th.
