Education in Faith

This Saturday, we celebrate the Sacrament of First Eucharist. It is a very exciting time for our students. They have been discussing and remembering what Jesus did for us in his life, death and resurrection. In particular the Last Supper, that final meal Jesus shared with his disciples. At that meal Jesus gave us the Eucharist so that we could remember him in a special way. When we receive Communion, we believe that we receive the person of Jesus into our very beings. We become one with him, and we become one with each other. As a community we become 'the body of Christ'.

 

 

We wish these parishioners and their families a time of blessing and grace on the occasion of their Holy Communion.
