First communion preparation begins in January of each school year following First Reconciliation in the Fall. A parent meeting is first held in order to catechize and seek the help of the parents. The children meet weekly for one hour. In addition to formal classroom study, the children visit the church for a tour and explanation of the Liturgy, meet often to sing songs and watch videos that prepare them for First Communion. As the time for First Eucharist nears, the children, accompanied by a parent, are interviewed to assist them in their readiness for the Sacrament.

The Second Year Confirmation Candidates performed special service projects, both as a group and individually. Some of these young people are very involved in on-going service especially through the schools they attend. In addition to study, they also worship and pray together, meet socially, go through an interview and take part in a day retreat that is parish based.
The goal of the Program is to continue to work for, and with the youth, and allow them to achieve ownership in the Parish. The Program is working at expanding to accommodate 11th and 12th graders. These young people are offered the opportunity to come together socially, to pray, study and give service to others. They are also encouraged to become Lectors, Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist, and Religious Education Teachers.

St. Clare's Bereavement Ministry is serviced beautifully and sensitively at the time of funeral planning by Claire Cavanaugh, our Bereavement Coordinator, who assists with longer range issues following the death of a beloved family member. Claire helps each family preparing for a funeral with details which surround the liturgy. Her work in this regard is invaluable and always appreciated. We have an annual Bereavement liturgy in November which tolls the bells as names are recited of all who have died in the past year. A Collation follows with suitable literature made available. Bereavement videos and literature are likewise available through Claire's sensitive ministry. Our Bereavement Coordinator's training and formation is through Parish supervision by the clergy.
Within our Parish we welcome the assistance of those interested in helping in following areas: Lector
