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.

I just received the official dates for my dd's 1st Penance and 1 Communion :
February 21 --- 1st Penance
April 30 --- 1st Communion

I'm looking for a first communion poem to use as copywork and memorization for my 1st communicant.

Does anyone have one?

Hi Cay,

I happened upon the following poem online:

On Your First Holy Communion...

Remember how He broke the loaf made from golden wheat,
And said, "This is my body. Take this bread and eat."

Remember how the sun-ripe grapes taken from the vine
Became a cup of blessing: "Take and drink this wine."

Remember how a cross of wood became a symbol of
Christ's giving of himself to us-the greatest kind of love.

Remember Jesus' love for you today as you receive
His bread of life, His cup of grace...Remember and believe!

The webpage is here, and there are several nice poems and blessings on the page. Hope that helps.
