With a warm and friendly style, this booklet provides thoughtful, clear answers to the questions parents have about preparing their children to receive the sacraments of reconciliation and Communion for the first time. It includes recommendations for the involvement of godparents, reflections on the meaning of the sacraments, an overview of the rites, and guidance for how and when to receive the sacraments. It also stresses the importance of regularly confessing sins and going to Mass as a family. With questions for reflection, parents will be able to engage with their children about their developing faith and help them participate regularly in the sacramental life of the Church as they mature.
This title is also available in Spanish.
“In an inviting and pastoral way, this booklet presents a process for parents to help them prepare their child for the sacraments. Paul Turner provides information about the sacraments, explains doctrine, and discusses possible cultural and parish differences for the reception of the sacraments. He affirms and reassures parents that they can and indeed have a responsibility to participate in forming their children to receive first penance and first Communion. There are great conversation starters, prayer prompts, and questions to reflect on for the family. This booklet answers many questions while helping parents enter into preparing for the sacraments.”
