ENCOUNTERING JESUS, MAKING DISCIPLES, TRANSFORMING LIVES
First Reconciliation and First Communion
Please note: This page is for children who do NOT attend St. Gerald School.
We are excited that you have a child (or children) ready for the Sacraments of First Reconciliation and First Communion. Parents with 2nd grade children will be given materials that include activities and teachings they can facilitate at home with their family. Parents will receive the first box of resources at the parent meeting in September.
REGISTRATION and TUITION
Please complete the online registration, including all children in grades K-8 in your family. There is no separate form for children participating in sacramental preparation.
The annual tuition is $150 per family. This is a per-family fee, not per child, and covers families with children in grades K-8. Any catechist, leaders, or aides will receive a reduced tuition rate of 50%. Those who purchase H.O.P.E. certificates can also put any credits accumulated toward your faith formation tuition. No child will be turned away. If there is financial hardship, please contact Teresa Zamora at [email protected].
If you prefer to pay by check, please mail or drop off payment to the parish business office:
St. Gerald Catholic Church
7859 Lakeview St
Ralston, NE 68127
