First Communion Class

Usually Begins in Early Spring

Mother Mary conducts the Communion Instruction Classes for Children in the first grade and older.  The classes are designed to help the children become more aware of the parts of the worship service and its meaning.  The children who complete the classes will sit together with their family and will receive Communion first on Easter Eve Vigil.

There will be four classes on Sunday afternoons from 4:00 - 4:30 pm.  One parent is asked to accompany their child to these classes so they can reinforce learning during the week and help their child with "homework" assignments.  If you have any questions, or would like to sign your child up for these classes, please contact Mother Mary at 405 - 624 - 0141.
