The Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist
Holy Communion is the reception of the Body and Blood of Christ in the Eucharist. Our fellowship and union with Jesus and other baptized Christians in the Church has its source and summit in the celebration of the Eucharist.
Formal preparation for First Holy Eucharist is recommended and offered in 2nd Grade through St. Michael Catholic School and the Faith Formation Program.
Sacramental First Holy Eucharist for Adults
For information about First Communion for older youth and adults returning to the faith, please visit our Becoming a Catholic Page.Homebound Eucharistic Ministry
Trained parishioners bring the Eucharist to parishioners and Catholics who are unable to receive Communion with the community. Volunteers provide their own transportation and training is provided.
The Holy Eucharist completes Christian initiation. Those who have been raised to the dignity of the royal priesthood by Baptism and configured more deeply to Christ by Confirmation participate with the whole community in the Lord's own sacrifice by means of the Eucharist.

At the Last Supper, on the night he was betrayed, our Savior instituted the Eucharistic sacrifice of his Body and Blood. This he did in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the cross throughout the ages until he should come again, and so to entrust to his beloved Spouse, the Church, a memorial of his death and resurrection: a sacrament of love, a sign of unity, a bond of charity, a Paschal banquet 'in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace, and a pledge of future glory is given to us.
