14 children receive their First Holy Communion

 

On Sunday, April 14, 2024, 14 children received their First Holy Communion with their families and friends in attendance. The children, under the guidance of Terri Panuccio, K-6 Faith Formation director, received the Sacrament of Reconciliation in February and have been preparing for this day for months. The children’s last names are not published due to diocesan guidelines that prohibit identifying children younger than 18.
