FIRST HOLY COMMUNION
Congratulations to all the beautiful First Holy Communicants sharing at the Table of the Lord for the first time either last weekend or this coming Saturday night or Sunday morning.
It has been an absolute joy to be with you throughout the weeks of preparation.
There were many moments of sharing and discovery that will live long in my memory.
Some favourite moments include the wonder at the scriptures presented especially that of The Last Supper, our deeper understanding of the Mass and ‘why we do and say what we do’, the enthusiasm in counting the crosses inside and outside the church (Maggie went into the four hundreds, turning it into a mathematical activity too!) and all the parent sharing and mementos from their First Holy Communion, still treasured today.
We congratulate these students and their families - Sasha Kendall, Margaret O’Dea, Georgia and Hannah Petrie, Lily Tuvukica (from the Mass on 29 Aug), Kayleb Spiller (30 Aug), Luke Maggiolo, Jye Marino, Claire Stanford (5 Sept), Ashlin Benny, Ruby Danzey, Tiffany Gasparin and Joseph Romeo (6 Sept).
Peace be with you always,
Selina Venier
