First Communion Registration 2024

February 18 to March 17 (10:15am-10:50 am) | Welcome! Neville and I are thrilled you have a child interested in taking his/her First Communion! We anticipate a sweet time of discovery about the tenants of faith in Jesus, as well as a deeper understanding of the "why's" behind the Eucharist! Know that we will be praying for your child as he/she walks through this precious season and timely coursework.

The First Communion class for young people offers an opportunity to hear the gospel and explore the meaning of Holy Communion (also known as the Eucharist or the Lord’s Table.) This optional class is for baptized children grades K and up, who want to understand more about this meal. This class also discusses some other foundational theology about baptism as well as some principles of Anglicanism. Parent participation will be required for a portion of the classes. This class will take place over 5 weeks in between the services (10:15am-10:50 am) from February 18 to March 17. The main content for each class will start promptly at 10:15am. The last class (on March 17) will take place after the 11 am service with lunch and a Communion “practice” run before they take communion for the first time on Palm Sunday, March 24. Please mark your calendar and register using this form.

At any time feel free to email Rachel at rsanders@htcraleigh.org with any questions. The deadline to register is Ash Wednesday, February 14th!
