"Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the close of the age."

Matthew 28:20

Are you already a baptized Christian interested in receiving First Eucharist and Confirmation in the Catholic Church? Were you baptized Catholic and need First Eucharist and/or Confirmation? Were you asked to be a godparent for a niece/nephew/etc and realized you need to finish your sacraments to be eligible for this role?

Coming into full communion with the Catholic Church aims at leading candidates toward a more intimate union with Jesus Christ, becoming more equipped to intentionally live as his disciples, and participating in his mission to “make disciples of all nations” (Mt 28:19).

There are amazing graces awaiting your yes to this step in your life!

Preparation will strive to awaken the candidate to a livelier sense of belonging to the Catholic Church and to the local community/parish. Preparation will include learning what the Church teaches and why, as well as include time in worship, prayer, fellowship, and service.
