This paperback edition of the book My First Holy Communion is an invitation to the child to learn and take to heart the words we say and sing at Mass. It is an invitation to those receiving Communion for the first time or every other time to be part of the sacred banquet participated in by those who have prayed together, listened together and given thanks together. As an added feature, the My First Holy Communion book has a separate section that has the daily and Sunday prayers which the child can learn and memorize with the help of the parents giving the opportunity for family time together. This would be an appropriate and welcome gift to that special young person making his or her First Communion.
