Presentation of 3 year old/Presentación de Tres Años

Within cultures that traditionally possessed higher rates of infant mortality, the  Presentación de Tres Años provided an opportunity for parents to thank God for the gift of life received by their children. Traditionally celebrated on the fortieth day of life or on the infant's third birthday, the presentación is a way in which we join together in thanking God for the life of the child and in which we ask for God's continued blessings on him or her.

If you wish to celebrate a presentación,  please visit the parish office and plan your event for your son /daughter; or call 903-295-3890
