First communion is received when a child is in second grade. As part of this sacrament, preparation in religious education classes helps the formation of our students understand the Catholic faith. An additional workshop for family and students is also required. First Reconciliation will take place in the spring of 2nd grade.

Communion Form

Our ACC has two annual reconciliation services which allow for our community to enter into a deeper relationship with Christ. Renewal from this sacrament is important to our Catholic faith that we are courageously able to release the weight of this world and receive mercy as well forgiveness from God.  Advent Reconciliation Service will take place at St. John the Baptist Parish Center on Saturday, December 17th, 2022 at 1:00pm.

All youth entering into 11th grade are welcomed and encouraged to join in our Faith Formation classes geared towards Confirmation preparation.
