Dear Parents of First Communicants!
This is for parents of children receiving their First Communion this year. 1st grade families may ignore this email.
We’re so very close to First Communion! Below are some important reminders and information for the next few weeks.
Sunday, May 1 following the 8:30am Mass is the May Crowning. Our First Communicants will be leading. Families are asked to bring flowers to put at the foot of Our Lady, as well as flowers to share with parishioners. Please consider bringing extra, if you are able, for those who cannot afford to do so. We will process immediately following Mass, so please be sure to attend the 8:30am Mass.
Sunday, May 1 during class time will be rehearsal for First Communion. Parents are welcome to stay. Children and catechists will go back to class following rehearsal.
Sunday, May 8 at 8:30am Mass is First Communion! Students will sit with their class and catechists in reserved pews. Please be sure to arrive no later than 8:10am. There will be a reception in Deacon’s Hall following Mass. Certificates will be available to be picked up at the reception.
Please let me know if you have any questions and be assured of my prayers.
You will receive a hard copy version of this letter at your child's class on Sunday.
-Mary
