  • The Eucharistic Liturgy: Formed, Transformed, and Sent
  • Eucharist: Body of Christ, Broken for the World

• The Holy Eucharist completes Christian initiation. Those who have been raised to the dignity of the royal priesthood by Baptism and configured more deeply to Christ by Confirmation participate with the whole community in the Lord's own sacrifice by means of the Eucharist. 
  
  At the Last Supper, on the night he was betrayed, our Savior instituted the Eucharistic
  sacrifice of his Body and Blood. This he did in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the cross throughout the ages until he should come again, and so to entrust to his beloved Spouse,
  the Church, a memorial of his death and resurrection: a sacrament of love, a sign of unity, a bond of charity, a Paschal banquet 'in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace,
  and a pledge of future glory is given to us.

  Corpus Christi Parish is the named for the Eucharist- the Body of Christ. The parish's name should be a reminder that the Eucharist is the very center of our lives.

  The Sacrament of First Holy Eucharist
  
  Children typically receive their First Holy Communion in second grade, after proper instruction in the faith. Others, who enter the Church later, receive communion for the first time at the Easter Vigil, when they are Baptized and Confirmed.  For more information about the preparation program for children visit our Faith Formation page by clicking here.
