Get close to Jesus by attending Mass each week, if you have not yet made your First Holy Communion or are not able to receive for some other reason, you can go for a blessing at Communion. Simply cross your arms with your hands on the opposite shoulder to let the priest, deacon, or extraordinary minister of the Eucharist know you would like a blessing. Preparations for the reception of the Eucharist for the first time is coordinated through Faith Formation.
