First Communion Retreat

Regarding the First Communion retreat:

Please plan to attend the retreat that you indicated as your first choice on the green sheet that was turned in back in January.  Do not change your date without checking with Ms. Ellen first.  Thanks!

First Communion Retreat

This is a reminder for families with a child in the First Sacrament program of the upcoming First Communion retreat.  At least one parent and the child who will be celebrating First Communion MUST attend ONE of these MANDATORY retreats.  Please arrive at the worship space of church 15 minutes early to allow time for check-in.  There will be no make-up dates offered for this retreat. Failure to attend one of these retreats will jeopardize you child's placement in the First Sacrament program.

Please bring at least three rectangular pieces of felt (child's choice of color) and a sharp scissors with you to the retreat.

Also, we have First Communion Bibles available for purchase this year.  They would make a great gift for your child.  We will have samples for view at the retreat.  If you are interested in doing so, you may purchase one or more at the retreat, and we will also have them available during Faith Formation any time before the First Communion masses.  The price is $15.00.  You may pay with cash or check made out to St. Luke.

Retreat Dates and Times:

Thursday, February 25th  4:30-6:00

             -OR-

Sunday, February, 28th  2:30-4:00
