First Communion


It was a very special day for us on Saturday, Ethan completed the sacrament of First Communion. I did not think that it would be such a big deal; being a Catholic for so long some of the rituals have become mundane & ordinary. But Saturday was anything but mundane. His excitement at finally being able to receive the body of Christ was infectious. It was a momentous rite of passage in his spiritual life, and I was so proud to be there with him.
