First Holy Communion

The final student workshops for the preparation of First Holy Communion take place this week. 

Practice for First Holy Communion (FHC) and seating allocations are as follows:

• Group celebrating FHC 11:00am Rehearsal date:
• Saturday 12th November after 5:00pm Vigil

• Group Celebrating FHC 2:00pm
• Sunday 13th November after 9:00am Mass for 2:00pm group.

Some families cannot make the First Holy Communion rehearsals on this coming weekend so Father Joe has made the decision that he will have another rehearsal on Saturday 5pm Vigil Mass, 19 November. Could these families who have spoken with Father Joe regarding this alternative date please confirm with the parish office, via email, to advise that you will be attending on this date.  If families do not attend a First Holy Communion rehearsal their child will not complete their First Holy Communion and will have to attend next year's sacrament programme.
