First Communion Instruction

Taste and See that the Lord is Good!

First Communion Instruction is held once a year on a Saturday morning. All youth in third grade and above, whose parents feel they are ready, are invited to join us for First Communion.

We use the curriculum "Fed and Forgiven" for our First Communion class, which combines videos, discussion, crafts, and games as we learn what God's great gift of Holy Communion is all about. At the end of the morning, each participant will decorate a wine glass which they will use on First Communion Sunday and then keep.

 
Our next class will be held on a Saturday in January, 2019.
