We welcome you and your child to a blessed year of preparation for First Communion and First Reconciliation.
Our Faith Formation program offers Holy First Communion and First Reconciliation for baptized children in grades 1st–4th. The Diocese of Monterey’s guidelines for First Communion require a two-year preparation period, typically beginning at age six, or first grade. The program runs from September to May each year.
Our first-year First Communion/First Reconciliation class is open to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students. Once this first year of Faith Formation is completed, they will be able to participate in our second-year program specific to First Communion/First Reconciliation. Attending weekly Mass is part of the journey and is expected.
All students or homeschool, prepare together for First Holy Communion and Reconciliation. Since we all belong to the same parish, we hope to promote a sense of community within our class. We do follow local school schedules the best we can, with some variation to accommodate school breaks. Thank you for encouraging this unity with your child. We are all the Body of Christ.
