First Communion

For the liturgy, "through which the work of our redemption is accomplished," (1) most of all in the divine sacrifice of the Eucharist, is the outstanding means whereby the faithful may express in their lives, and manifest to others, the mystery of Christ and the real nature of the true Church.

First Communion

Post by Johnna »

My son, James had his first communion yesterday. I was waiting until I had pics uploaded to post about it, but changed my mind. I'd rather share with you and get a pic up when I can.

Keep him in your prayers as he is a kind hearted but strong willed little boy. He very much wants to learn everything about his faith that he can and I pray that he never loses that zeal.

Holiness is not for wimps and the cross is not negotiable, sweetheart, it's a requirement.

Photos my daughter took. (No, she didn't crowd the aisle as he received. Her camera has a great zoom on it.)

Awe JB, what a living doll. He looks so happy to have Jesus in him as his Little White Guest. :D

LITTLE WHITE GUEST

You have come to my heart, dearest Jesus,
I am holding You close to my breast;
I'm telling You over and over,
You are welcome, Little White Guest.

I love You, I love You, my Jesus,
O please do not think I am bold;
Of course, You must know that I love You,
But I am sure that you like to be told.

I'll whisper, "I love You, my Jesus,"
And ask that we never may part;
I love You, O kind, loving Jesus
And press You still nearer my heart.

And when I shall meet You in Heaven,
My soul then will lean on Your breast;
And You will recall our fond meetings,
When You were my Little White Guest.
Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales

He didn't :P
He has troubles with handwriting and lace tying, so it wouldn't be a picture of him without his laces like that. :lol:
