Reflection 

 

We keep our Grade 4 children in our prayers as they prepare for and make their First Eucharist over the next two weekends. We wish them every blessing at this important time in their faith journey.

 

Dear Lord,

We thank You and praise You for the most precious gift of the Holy Eucharist.

We ask you to bless all our children who are preparing to receive the Eucharist for the first time.

 

Receiving the Holy Eucharist is a tremendous blessing,

and we ask you to help our children in their preparation for this blessing.

 

Help us to grow in love for You each day of our lives.  Help us to appreciate the great gifts You have given us.

 

Amen
