FIRST COMMUNION - PRAYER EVALUATIONS (Things to Learn, Part I)

As we informed all our First Communion classes this week, we will be evaluating the students on the four “Basic Prayers” as part of the preparation for First Communion.  These prayers include the Sign of the Cross, the Our Father, the Hail Mary, and the Glory Be.  We will be doing the evaluations next class. (If you need a copy of the handout with the prayers, it is available on the “First Communion Page” of our website.) We will be seeing whether each of them has learned their basic prayers.  Each student will be asked to recite these prayers individually with their catechist during the class to ensure that they know them and so that they can continue using these prayers as they grow in their faith.  Please make sure that your child's microphone and camera are working and that they know how to unmute themselves when it is time to say the prayers.   As previously stated, we are asking for your assistance in helping your child to learn these prayers by going over and praying them together at home.  The best way for them to learn these prayers is to pray them every day, and what could be better than to pray together as a family daily!   Thank you, and God bless you.
