First Communion is received ONLY after your child has been baptized and has received First Reconciliation. If your child has been baptized and has received First Reconciliation and is enrolled in and attending the Religious Education classes, then First Communion usually takes place in the second grade. If your child hasn’t been baptized, click on this link for more information: BAPTISM FOR AGES 5 to 17

If your child is older and has been baptized but has not received First Reconciliation, they will be placed in the Religious Education program and will proceed accordingly. For more information, call the parish office at (718) 295-6800.
