Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Jen, I think I have the Welcome! one or have seen it. Are you sure that one isn't written for adults?

Oh my! I think you may be right, Jenn.

My copy was published by Little Flower Press, 2000. It mentions that it was originally published 1920. That helps a little...so this copy is the copy I have which is written to children.

At my local Catholic shop yesterday, I saw this resource, and thought it was really well-done:

Jesus Speaks to Me About the Mass

It's not dumbed-down, but very solid. You can see excerpts here.


Jenn, this book looks beautiful! Do you think it could be used for the Latin Mass as well?

I found these links at that lovely site you linked me to on the other thread, Jen:


This is the book that contains meditations for children preparing for their First Holy Communion. It is called simply First Communion.

This one contains meditations for adults on the reception of Communion. It has is really lovely with paired meditations for before and after reception of the Blessed Sacrament. It talks about all the different ways we can welcome Our Lord- the welcome of Mary, the welcome of a creature, the welcome of a supplicant, etc.

I didn't know they were still being published; I got mine from Abebooks. My copy of First Communion was published in 1906! Still in great condition, too!

I just wanted to clear up any confusion. Both books are absolutely lovely. I am enjoying First Communion with my son for his FHC preparation, and I am also enjoying Welcome! Holy Communion Before and After myself for preparation to receive Our Blessed Lord and thanksgiving afterward. Both gems!

Just wanted to say that you can get e-versions of the texts at the Internet Archive (PDF, Kindle, etc.). Here is the link for First Communion for children.

I just saw this link today to Liturgical Vestments and the Vesting Prayers on the Vatican website that may be helpful!


The Priest Game has a DVD in it that talks about the vestments and the prayers said during vesting.

That looks perfect for our Friday Fun Days while we are learning about the Mass- thanks!
