At Mary Immaculate, the Eucharist is the heart of our faith—the place where Christ strengthens us for the journey. If you’re seeking to prepare for First Holy Communion, we would be honored to walk with you.
Our two‑year preparation for First Communion and First Reconciliation (confession) is a two year process that is from September to May each year.
We look forward to meeting you and accompanying you in this faith journey. To best serve you, registration takes place in person at our Faith Formation office
When you are registering, please bring a copy of your child’s Baptismal certificate. Need a copy? Click here. Please include the student’s name on the comments and email receipt. Send all baptismal certificates to Sandra Bottomley (click name for email)
Please note: Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten faith formation years do not count as First Communion preparation. Also sixth graders that have not received First Communion must wait until eighth grade to receive First Communion and Confirmation
