First Communion
Communion is one of the Sacraments of Initiation and is typically first received in the second grade. The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life and the entire community celebrates this important moment for our children.
Confirmation
For Catholic youth Confirmation is usually the third and final Sacrament of Initiation. At St. John’s we prepare students for this sacrament throughout their eighth grade year. Confirmation seals and strengthens the graces received in Baptism as the Confirmandi pray for the grace to continue growing and developing in their journey of faith.
St. John's Religious Education for children meets on Sundays at 9:00 a.m. during the academic year. Children from the age of 4 through eighth grade are all welcome! See our Education and Formation page for more information and the link to register for religious education at St. John’s.
