Catholics believe the Eucharist or Communion is both a sacrifice and a meal. We believe in the real presence of Jesus, who died for our sins. As we receive Christ's Body and Blood we are also nourished spiritually and brought closer to God.

First Holy Communion in Faith Formation classes is made in the Spring for children in the 3rd grade who are enrolled in the Program at St. Gregory. In general, this is a two-year preparation program. For specific details, please
