Holy Eucharist

The Most Precious Body and Blood of Jesus Christ

The Sacrament of the Eucharist is both a sacrifice and a meal. It has its origin at the Last Supper when on the night Jesus was betrayed, He instituted the Eucharistic Sacrifice of His Body and Blood. This He did in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the cross throughout the ages until He comes again. In this Sacrament, Jesus entrusts to his Church a memorial of His death and Resurrection, the sacrament of love, a sign of unity and a bond of charity, in which Christ is consumed, and our minds and souls are filled with grace and a pledge of future glory.


The Eucharist is the source and summit of our faith through the actions of the Holy Spirit and the Real Presence of Jesus; His Body and Blood become present under the form of bread and wine. It is through the Eucharist that each of us is nourished by Jesus to seek God’s will.


Children are generally prepared to receive their first Holy Communion when they reach the second grade. They are prepared through a special program and must already be attending our Family of Faith Ministry (PSR) or attending Catholic grade school.


Adults who have not yet received first Holy Communion, may also contact Paul Stokell concerning our OCI (Order of Christian Initiation) process.
