First
Eucharist and Confirmation
Children of our parish who are
baptized and have received
previous instruction in Catholic
Faith may join a class to
prepare for First Communion and
Confirmation. The class
typically begins in December to
early January, with celebration

season. Eligibility to
participate in the sacramental
programs is dependent upon the
following factors:

participation at weekend
liturgies

sponsored religious education
program or Auburn Area Catholic
School
- participation in a religious
education program the previous
year

encouraged in various church
ministries including financial
stewardship
- commitment to church
attendance after reception of
first-time sacrament.
