"This is my Body, which will be given for you. Do this in remembrance of Me.”
The Holy Eucharist is the “source and summit of the Christian life.” This beautiful Sacrament of Holy Communion nourishes and fortifies us with the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, and unites us with Him and with His entire Church. The Church encourages all her members who are in a state of grace to receive Holy Communion frequently.
The Eucharist: How We Receive
The Sacrament of the Eucharist as Real Presence
For first Holy Communion (typically 2nd grade), see Elementary Discipleship Classes for more information.
For older children and adults, contact the Parish Office for more information.
Communion to the Homebound
When parishioners are unable to attend Mass due to illness, aging or living situations, arrangements can be made for parish ministers to bring Holy Communion to them. These visits help our homebound parishioners remain connected with the sacramental life of our Faith community. For more information on receiving Holy Communion at home, please contact Phyllis Powers-Fata in the parish office.
Caring for our Homebound
Holy Family provides baskets, cards, and gifts to our homebound throughout the year. Many of these are delivered during the holiday seasons. If you are interested in helping with this ministry please contact Phyllis Powers-Fata.
Meals to the Sick
We are happy to help take care of the sick in our Parish by providing meals as needed. If you or someone you know has a need please contact Phyllis Powers-Fata and we will make arrangments. If you are interested in volunteering to help provide meals please let us know.
