Eucharistic Gifts
Every year our 2nd Graders, as part of their preparation to receive First Communion, sign up to bring up the gifts at Mass. As we come closer to their time of receiving the sacrament though, we still have plenty of opportunities for others to also have this privilege. It is especially meaningful if you have an upcoming anniversary or birthday to celebrate, but you are always free to stop by the Sacristy on your way in to Mass and see if you are needed.
