First Communion

First Reconcilliation & First Communion

Children of St. Joseph Parish who are in first grade or older are invited to register for First Reconciliation and First Communion preparation. This is a two year program and registration takes place in September and Classes begin in October. Children from second grade at St. Joseph School prepare for the sacraments of reconciliation and communion during religion classes at school.

Of vital importance to your child’s preparation is your weekly participation in the Mass— the greatest expression of our Catholic faith. It is here that the preparation for these sacraments come alive. Please make weekly Mass attendance a priority for you and your family. 

Registrations take place the first week of September.
