First Penance & First Commnunion

Children who have been baptized into the Catholic faith will be eligible to receive their First Penance and First Communion after being catechized for two years (through attendance at a Catholic school or the Parish School of Religion program). Please note that children enrolled in Catholic schools will not receive these sacraments at school. It is Diocesan policy that Catholic school students receive these sacraments in the church parish in which their family is registered. More information is available HERE.

To register your child for the Sacrament of First Penance & Communion, they must be enrolled in the Parish School of Religion. To enroll your child in Parish School of Religion classes as preparation for First Penance & Communion, please complete the form located below or call (337) 233-1591 for more information.
