First Communion is considered to be one of
the holiest and most important occasions in the life of a Roman Catholic. It is
the first time that a person receives the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist, which consists of eating
some consecrated bread and drinking consecrated wine. Catholics believe these
to be the body and blood of Jesus Christ Most Catholic children receive their
First Communion when they are 7 or 8 years old,
because this is considered the age of reason. Other people can receive communion for the first time whenever they have met all
of the Catholic Church's requirements.
Tigers received some
lessons at the church of Santa Rita de
Casia, where they made their first confession, which is also called the
Sacrament of Penance a week before receiving their First Communion. The penance
usually consists of several prayers to be recited immediately after leaving the
confessional. After this, the child is considered to be absolved of sin, and he
or she is ready for his or her First Communion.
On November the 3rd
my precious Tigers received this Sacrament. They were very excited about this
event in their lives. Parents and teachers accompanied the kids on that special
day.
