Children in St. John Chrysostom Parish, regardless of their school, typically celebrate the Sacrament of First Eucharist in second grade. Please note, however, that preparation for First Holy Communion begins in first grade.
We welcome all children into this sacrament and are happy to work with families with special circumstances or needs.
First Holy Communion 2022 will be celebrated
at 10 am Saturday, May 7, 2022.
All First Eucharist preparation is conducted through the Parish Religious Education Program (PREP). PREP begins in first grade, as required by the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Children must be enrolled every year from grades 1 to 7 in order to complete their sacraments as scheduled. Grades may not be skipped. Children who leave the program will resume where they left off.
Adults who wish to prepare for the sacrament of First Eucharist should contact the RCIA program.
