Holy Communion

On April 27th, 2008, Rebecca celebrated her First Holy Communion. She had a great day with family, Godparents and friends. The 50 Catechists were actually pretty good during the 90 minute ordeal. She's pictured above with Father Paul, who also performed her baptism in October, and will perform our validation ceremony this September.

Afterwards, we had a luncheon here at the house. She received a lot of beautiful gifts and well wishes and we thank everyone for sharing in this special time.

Preparing for this was quite the ordeal this year. I do not recall this much work and preparation when I was a child. We are proud she's met this milestone and look forward to helping her achieve her Confirmation in high school.
