1. For All Children in First Holy Communion Classes (including the 'older' students in Group 2)

All children who will receive Holy Communion for the first time in May will receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation on Saturday, January 19th.  This is a mandatory part of the First Holy Communion program except for those children who have not yet been baptized.  Children are to arrive by 1pm for a 2pm start and should go directly to their usual Sunday classroom.  At least one parent of each child must attend. If you have not yet provided a copy of your child's baptismal certificate, it is essential that you do so prior to Saturday.  If you have any questions or require any further information, please contact the CCD Team at This email address is being protected from spambots.

A GROUP of MEN meet every MONDAY EVENING from 8:30 to 10:00 p.m. at MARYKNOLL HOUSE for scripture study, led by FR. BILL GALVIN. Monday Bible Study continues through the month of May.

We will finish up the Book of Genesis by reflecting on the impact of the book on our own spirituality and how it has or will shape our continuing faith journey. We will wind up sometime in June and break for the summer.

All are welcome! For details, contact DENNIS MONTECILLO at (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.).
