First Eucharist

Because the sacraments unite us to Christ and his Body,
the Church, all families preparing for sacramental reception
need to be registered and active members of
St. Rita Catholic Community.

Eucharist (Holy Communion)

The Eucharist is the “Source and Summit” of our faith!  Christ is truly and fully present to us in the Sacrament of Holy Communion.  Two consecutive years of faith formation help prepare young people for this sacrament which is normally celebrated in the 2^nd grade.  For example, beginning in the 1^st grade, a child should eventually celebrate First Eucharist in the 2^nd grade. If, however, a child begins at another time (e.g., the 3^rd grade), he or she will celebrate First Eucharist after the second year of formation (e.g., the 4^th grade).
