Description
Discover the profound journey of faith with 'Preparing to Celebrate', an essential resource for children in understanding the Eucharist—an integral part of Catholic sacramental life. This beautifully illustrated 56-page book, published by HarperCollins in 1997, offers enriching information and engaging activities designed to help young learners deepen their appreciation for this vital Sacrament within their parish community. Each unit in 'Preparing to Celebrate' focuses on key themes that resonate with the lives of children: from being welcomed into the Church to understanding the significance of family celebrations and communal meals. Your child will explore how the parish family listens to sacred stories, participates in Jesus' meal, and experiences the joy of being sent forth in faith. 'Preparing to Celebrate' is more than just a book; it’s a guide to nurturing a lifelong relationship with Jesus through the Eucharist, making it ideal for both home and church settings. This book is part of a valuable series that includes titles like 'Preparing to Make Peace' (Reconciliation) and 'Growing with the Spirit' (pre-Eucharist Confirmation). Equip your child with knowledge and excitement as they prepare for one of the most significant milestones in their spiritual life.
