Holy Eucharist
The Eucharist, or Communion, is both a sacrifice and a meal. We believe in the real presence of Jesus, who died for our sins. Holy Communion is the act of receiving the real presence of Jesus Christ's body and blood, transubstantiated from the bread and wine during Mass. As we receive Christ’s Body and Blood, we also are nourished spiritually and brought closer to God.
In the Eucharist we celebrate the death and resurrection of Our Lord, and continue to nourish our relationship with Our Lord that began in Baptism. Typically our children receive the Eucharist in the second grade. Preparatory classes are taught by our religious education instructors with periodic meetings during the year.

Communion to the homebound is available on request. Please contact the Parish Office. We always appreciate knowing when a member of the parish is hospitalized.
