My dearest children today is a joyful day for we gather here for your first Holy Communion. To our eyes we see bread and wine, but the one whom you will receive is Jesus. To receive Jesus is into your life is to allow Him to stay close to you. We stay close to Him when we choose to live our life for Him. The world is a busy place, but we must always make time for Christ. Continue to invite Him to enter into your life to dwell with you out of love. Continue to say “yes” to Jesus each and every day of your life.
To our parents please remember to take your children to Mass. Teach them how to pray and love Him. We are called to build up the domestic church which is the church at home. When we fail to assist at Mass we fail to be present with Jesus. We say that there is something else in my life which is more important then developing a relationship with Him. Saying “yes” to Jesus is not just for these children, but for each of us. Let us share in their joy each and every time that we receive Jesus.
Let us receive Jesus with great joy!
