First Holy Communion
"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day".
John 6:54
Who is this programme for?
Our First Holy Communion Programme is for baptised children in Year 4 and above.
What does it cost?
We ask for a payment of $50 to cover the costs of resources, text books and the day retreat. Finances should not stop a child receiving the sacraments, so please contact the office if you are in financial need and we will be able to assist.
