Everything you need to plan a meaningful family First Communion retreat is right here at your fingertips in this complete resource. Choose from a variety of activities that support teaching about the Mass, God’s unending love, the Eucharist as thanksgiving, and much more. Each engaging activity and prayer invites family participation throughout the retreat day and offers “at home” guidance to help parents continue the activities, conversations, and prayers all year long. With a wide variety of options and complete instructions, you’ll be able to host a retreat (or two or three) that suits your own parish space and timing. (There’s even an activity for parishes that follow the restored order of the sacraments.)

Let this wonderful resource help you prepare children and their families for First Communion—and for every eucharistic celebration all through their lives.
