Synopsis

A Letter from Moira

Hello again girls and boys, you are now preparing to take the second step on your journey to become full members of the church. You will be able to take part in Mass with more understanding because you will learn,

  1. the different parts of the Mass and the links to stories in the bible.
  2. that every time we receive Jesus in Holy Communion, He is really present, sharing his life, love and friendship with us.
  3. that we can talk to Him as a real friend and have a ‘heart to heart’ conversation with Him. It is very important that you take part in Mass regularly and receive Jesus in Holy Communion as often as you can so that you remain strong and happy.
  4. that just as normal food keeps you physically healthy, so receiving Holy Communion keeps you spiritually well - that is the inside part of you that no one else can see – your feelings.
  5. You will hear all the prayers said during Mass but don’t worry about that because you will become familiar with them gradually so that eventually you will be able to join in with the congregation.
  6. how good it is to find new friends at the church you attend.
I hope you have been confessing regularly to your priest because as you know, it is good to consider your words and deeds to ensure that you are making good choices. If you have made poor choices you must admit it and say sorry as quickly as you can. What a relief that is - as you always feel better immediately.

There are 7 prayers that you have to learn and you will find them at the back of this book so that you can practise them. When you can say a prayer perfectly to your Prayer Partner, put a tick in the box and soon you will have ticks in all the boxes. However, you can also talk to Jesus in your own words every day and that’s a lovely way to stay in touch with Him!

Keep your Activity Book forever as a happy reminder of this wonderful time in your life when you prepared to receive Holy Communion for the first time. Best wishes from Moira
