These milestone moments can impact us for decades. That is why I do my best to prepare young people well for receiving their sacraments. These can be life-changing moments in their lives just as my First communion was for me. I want to be sure our young children and adolescents are given the same opportunities as we had to be impacted by the love of God through solemn celebration of the sacraments.

That is why I do my best to prepare young people well for receiving their sacraments. These can be life-changing moments in their lives just as my First communion was for me.

I am glad this information was retained in the inside cover of my prayer book.
