Children meet the gentle Jesus while they prepare for their first Holy Communion. Written in the engaging pastoral style of the Redemptorists, Meet the Gentle Jesus: First Communion sacrament preparation introduces the Mass and the sacrament of the Communion in ways that inspire youngsters to take a lifelong journey of knowing and loving Jesus, and to become missionary disciples.
Meet the Gentle Jesus: First Communion is a complete curriculum and it is in conformity with the Catechism of the Catholic Church. The components are:
- First Communion for Children (this book)
- Catechist Guide, a comprehensive, wraparound leader guide that enables you to plan and teach your program
- Family Guide, which explains the sacrament, and provides weekly activities for the family to share their faith
- A Child's First Communion...And So Much More!, a DVD featuring the popular Fr. Joe Kempf
- Meet the Gentle Jesus: The Mass for Children, a take-with booklet on the Mass
The eight chapters of First Communion for Children are:
- We Belong to God's Holy Family
- We Gather in God's House
- We Ask for God's Mercy and Give Thanks to God
- We Listen to God's Word
- We Prepare a Meal and a Sacrifice
- We Remember Jesus' Sacrifice
- We Gather at the Lord's Table
- We Go Forth to Serve God's Family
Each fully illustrated chapter includes:
- An opening and a closing prayer
- Two Bible stories that introduce key Catechism concepts
- Reflection questions
- Growing in Faith, which helps children apply their learning
- Your Faith at Home, which asks kids to share their faith with their family
- Community Time, which asks kids to carry what they've learned to their community so they become the missionary disciples Pope Francis wants them to be
- Activities to reinforce classroom learning
The charming, colorful illustrations by renowned artist Jeff Albrecht engage children and help make the doctrine understandable to them. The book includes a complete glossary.
Meet the Gentle Jesus: First Communion has been reviewed by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
