The Eucharist is of such importance in our lives as a faithful people that the Second Vatican Council has referred to Eucharist as "the source and summit of the Christian life." The preparation for this sacrament begins in January and culminates with a Saturday morning retreat and parish-wide celebrations.
Since Sacraments are the heart of our faith journey and preparation is most important, Youth need to have prepared for First Reconciliation prior to preparing for First Eucharist.
