This program is open to baptized children in grades 1st–4th. The Diocese of Monterey’s guidelines for First Communion require a two-year preparation period, typically beginning at age six, or first grade. Our first-year class is open to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade students. Once this first year of Faith Formation is completed, they will be able to participate in our second-year program specific to First Communion and Reconciliation.
The second-year program is open only to children who have completed their first year of Faith Formation at the Carmel Mission or by special arrangement.
