First Holy Communion Guidelines
Due to Covid Restrictions:
Children should be dressed appropriately for this holy sacrament:
Girls in a modest dress (white with a veil optional)
Boys in a dress suit or dark dress slacks and a white dress shirt
ON THE DAY OF FIRST COMMUNION
Holy Mother Church has been faced with obstacles throughout Her history. She has remained steadfast throughout. These are times that call for us to work together and put the beauty of the Sacraments and the welfare of our children first. If you cannot follow the guidelines, please let Miss Leslie know by emailing her at LKLINGER@STJMOD.COM so your child’s name can be removed from the list and placed on a waiting list.
Thank you and God bless you all!
