The Eucharist is the source and summit of the Christian life. We receive the very Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ (the Real Presence) in Holy Communion. Everything from the Christian life flows from the Eucharist and flows back to it.

It is in the act of worship at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass that we disciples receive the Eucharist. Catholics must be in the state of grace.

Young Catholics customarily receive the Eucharist (1^st Holy Communion) in the 2^nd grade and our parish, either through our school or PREP (Parish Religious Education) program, helps them to prepare.

For those unable to attend church because of illness or age, we can arrange to bring Holy Communion into your home. Please contact the Parish Office at 215-357-5720
