The Celebration of First Holy Communion at Our Parishes

Beginning this year, in keeping with our new Family Faith Formation model and the guidance of the Archdiocese of Boston, children will be receiving their First Holy Communion with their families at a Sunday Mass, the same way they will receive the sacrament throughout their lives. Groups of First Communicants will be receiving the Sacrament at our 9:00am Family Masses on April 26, May 3, May 10, and May 17. Several rows of pews in the center of the church will be reserved for the children and their families each Sunday as we celebrate this joyous occasion together as a parish family!
Our regular 9:00am Mass congregants are encouraged to attend these Family Masses and witness this important moment in the lives of these young children and families.

Holy Week and Easter at the Collaborative

We are so happy to share these images of our observance of the Triduum at the St. John-St. Paul Collaborative.
From the solemn observances of Holy Thursday and Good Friday, through the Easter joy that was felt around our Sacred Fire at the Vigil on Saturday evening, to the very last blessing on Sunday, the SJSP family rejoiced in the resurrection of Our Lord!
