  • PART 1: THe bread of life
    celebrating the eucharist

    • WATCH BROTHER FRANCIS: 
      the bread of life - Celebrating the Eucharist



      Login to your Formed account, and search for "brother francis bread of life" to watch The Bread of Life: Celebrating the Eucharist

    • DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR YOU & YOUR CHILD

      We have some discussion questions to go along with the video. Depending on your kid's attention span, you can break the discussion into two parts, or save it for the end.

      After the first half (around the 13:00 minute mark), take a minute to chat together:

      1. What does the word Eucharist mean? (Hint: Thanksgiving)
      2. What are we thankful for? (Hint: Jesus’ sacrifice)
      3. When you go to Mass, what do you think about?
      4. How many times can you go to Mass and receive Communion (also called the Eucharist)?

      At the end of the video:
      1. When we receive Jesus in Communion he blesses us in many ways, can you name a few?
      2. One way is that He brings us closer to himself. Can you give an example of how you become closer to Jesus?
      3. He gives us power over bad things. Can you give an example of how receiving Jesus give you power over bad things?
      4. He helps us to be the light of Christ for others. Give 3 examples of how Jesus helps us be the light of Christ for others. (Hint: We talked about 2 last session!)
  • ARE YOU EXCITED ABOUT MAKING YOUR FIRST HOLY COMMUNION?

    • We are so excited for you... and so are your parents and family. You are doing a great job already!
      Remember your First Reconciliation. It wasn't so bad after all... and you received God's mercy and love.
      The same for your First Holy Communion. After you receive Jesus for the first time, you can come back and receive Him again and again!

  • PART 2: THE SAINTS FOLLOW JESUS

    • THE SAINTS FOLLOW JESUS

      Do you know what it means to follow in someone’s footsteps? It means that there are qualities (good things) about that person that you admire and you try to be like them by doing good things too.

      As Christian Catholics we are called to follow in Jesus' footsteps, to be like him in the way we treat others, help others and forgive others. 
      In the Brother Francis video that you watched, there was a story of Blessed Imelda. There are many people who followed in the footsteps of Jesus. We call these people Saints.

      Click the image to read about 4 Saints. Read each Saint card and decide which Saint you would like to include in your day. Pray to Jesus each day to help you make good choices and decisions... and you can also ask the Saint you choose to pray for you and help you too!

      Want to explore more than the 4 Saints in the image? Click here for a list of Saints based on the interests of your child.

  • PRAYERS TO TRY & TO LEARN

    • LORD'S PRAYER

      Our Father, who are in heaven,
      Hallowed be thy name
      Thy kingdom come,
      Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven
      Give us this day our daily bread,
      And forgive us our trespasses, 
      As we forgive those who trespass against us, And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
      Amen.

    • HAIL MARY

      Hail Mary, full of grace
      The Lord is with thee.
      Blessed are you
      among women, 
      And blessed is the fruit
      of your womb, Jesus.
      Holy Mary, Mother of God
      Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
      Amen.

    • PRAYER OF PRAISE

      Glory to the Father 
      and to the Son, 
      and to the Holy Spirit;
      As it was in the beginning, 
      is now and will be forever.
      Amen.
