THIS IS MY BODY,

GIVEN UP FOR YOU.

At Mary Immaculate, and in the Catholic Church, the Eucharist is the source and summit of our Faith. In receiving the Eucharist, we are given bread for the journey. If you are interested in receiving First Communion, we want to help you prepare to receive these Sacramental graces.

1st - 6th Grade

At Mary Immaculate, we eagerly prepare those who are interested in receiving First Holy Communion. The preparation of the sacraments of First Communion and First Reconciliation (confession) is a two year process from September to May each year.

We want to journey with you, and can’t wait to meet your family. To ensure that we are meeting you where you are at, registration is 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

At Mary Immaculate, if you are in 7th-12th grade, the preparation of the sacraments of First Communion can be combined with preparation for Confirmation.

This two year process prepares youth to be in full communion with the Catholic Church.

At Mary Immaculate, we want to prepare you for First Holy Communion in the right setting.

If you are 18 years and older, you will prepare for First Communion and Confirmation through the RCIA Journey process. There is both an English and Spanish program. We can’t wait to journey with you.
