  • ​Hear Fr. Brad Doyle explain why Holy Communion is so important, so you and your kids can celebrate this great occasion with profound faith and joy. Why has the Church celebrated First Communion with such fanfare for so many centuries? Why do we give gifts and host parties, and why do first communicants wear special dresses or suits they may only wear on that day? Because this is a child's first entrance into the full inner life of the Holy Church, their first participation in that great heavenly banquet feast for which we are all destined! In Holy Communion we have access to the greatest grace, Christ's own divine life! The Church teaches that at every Holy Mass,
    all the saints and angels are present along with Christ in his Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. Celebrate this beautiful occasion with ‪@CatholicCompany‬!

      and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.”

      @@allisonphillips668 No, not the Last Supper…specifically where Scripture teaches the concept of a “First Communion”. Or a “first pennance”. Or a “confirmation”. There’s nothing mystical nor transubstantiary about the Lord’s supper; it is done, as you stated, in memory of Christ’s broken body and shed blood. For believers only.

      @@patrickc3419 the Bible also doesn't speak about the benefits of baptism. We know these things are commanded (eg baptism laying on of hands and communion) you do these too so why don't you believe there is something spiritual about it? Evidence that communion is spiritual is if people eat of communion they can die if they have not received the spirit and Baptism

    Please BAPTIZE in the NAME not titles. Name is Jesus.... Re baptize for remission of sins.
    Acts 2:38. Acts 8:12, 16
    Acts 10:43 to end; Acts 19:1-6, acts 22:16. The blood to remit your sin is under the name of Jesus. A lamb sacrificed for our sins. I had A powerful experience when I baptized. I was BURRIED in JESUS'S NAME, rose in NEWNESS of life.
