We Gather Together

Author: Janet Schaeffler, O.P. 32 pages, 8.5” x 11”

Host a meaningful First Communion retreat with activities that invite family participation—even after everyone has gone home. These engaging activities and prayers support teaching about the Mass, God’s unending love, the Eucharist as thanksgiving, and much more. With easy-to-follow directions and an “at home” component that offers guidance for parents on how to continue the activities, conversations, and prayers, you’ll be able to plan a retreat from start to finish that suits your program needs and timing. (There’s even an activity for parishes that follow the restored order of the sacraments.) Let this wonderful resource help you as you help families live the Eucharist every day of their lives.
