Children and teens who are preparing for this spring's First Communions recently participated in a mini-retreat with their parents.
Children with their parents reflected on the Eucharistic gestures of the priest during Mass (such as the washing of the hands and the mingling of water and wine), prayed together with sacred art using the style of visio divina, and practiced how to reverently receive Jesus in the Eucharist.
Our parish community prays for these children and teens as they prepare to come to the table of our Lord and receive their First Holy Communions.
