First Communion is a two year program consisting of Pre-Communion in grade 1 and First Communion in grade 2.  We understand that some children, for various reasons, are past grade 2 and have not received their First Communion.  We have Pre-Communion and Communion classes for older children.  They will still need to attend the 2 year Special Sacraments program to be eligible to receive First Communion.  Mass attendance is required for both programs.
