With Joy,
We Welcome Our First Holy Communicants
Please keep our First Holy Communicants in your prayers as they received the precious Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Saturday, May 2. Throughout this year, they have devoted themselves to catechesis, prayer, and growing in their love for Christ, striving to conform their hearts and minds to His teachings.
This sacred milestone marked not only a moment of joy for these children and their families, but also a renewal of faith for our entire parish community. When they approached the altar for the first time, we pray that they were filled with reverence, wonder, and a deep awareness of Jesus’ abiding presence in the Eucharist. May this encounter strengthen them, guide them, and inspire a lifelong relationship with Him.
This weekend and in the weeks ahead, we invite you to join us in prayer for:
Adrian M., Aubrielle B., Bernadette P, Eli C., Elianna C.,
Faustina S., Gabriella B., Geneva M., Gianna S., Ignatius H.,
Kasandra R., Kaylee R., Kora C., Liam R., Lilia W., Luna K.,
Luna R., Maia R., Malachi P., Manuel M., Matthew B., Noah T.,
Peter G., Sofia M., and Zander Q.
May God bless them abundantly today and always.
Dennis N. and Olivia E. received their First Holy Communion preparation here at St. John’s but received the Sacrament at another parish in our Catholic community.
“As two pieces of wax fused together make one, so he who receives Holy Communion is so united with Christ that Christ is in him and he is in Christ.” - St. Cyril of Alexandria (376-444), Father and Doctor of the Church
