First Holy Communion 2026
Fr Anthony and the First Holy Communion team will soon start planning for First Holy Communion in 2026.
Parents of children who will be in Y3 and above in September 2025 and who wish to prepare for the Sacrament are asked to collect an application form from the church porch, fill out the details and return
it to the Parish Office as soon as possible please so we have an idea of numbers.
The sessions will begin in October on two Fridays
each month from 5-6pm and we will be in touch in due course.
​
Reconciliation and First Holy Communion
The preparation for the sacraments of reconciliation and Eucharist is a very special time in the moral and spiritual development of young people.
​The young people are prepared for the Sacrament of reconciliation and Eucharist, firstly by their parents who should, in accordance with their baptismal promise, already be bringing their children to Mass each week. All children should be able to recite from memory the OUR FATHER, HAIL MARY, GLORY BE TO THE FATHER and the CONFETIOR. The children will be expected to come along to weekly sessions held at the church after school hours. The children will also be expected to attend Holy Mass every Saturday evening or Sunday morning throughout the course.
​
If you are interested in enrolling your child please fill in this application form or speak to Father Anthony.
