First Holy Communion

In the sacrament of Holy Eucharist, we encounter Jesus in the most perfect gift He has given us, the gift of Himself which feeds and nourishes us throughout our journey on earth. The Eucharist is the source and the summit of our Catholic faith. Everything in our faith points to the Eucharist, wherein we receive the true Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.
