What to Offer at First Communion?
For Boy or Girl
First Communion is a significant milestone in a child's Catholic life. It is a special moment that celebrates the first time a child receives the Eucharist, one of the most important sacraments. Finding the ideal gift for this occasion can be a challenge, but it is also an opportunity to offer something memorable. In this article, discover Portugal Jewels' gift suggestions for boys and girls who are celebrating their First Communion.
First Communion: Meaning and Preparation
First Communion is one of the most important sacraments. It marks the first time the child receives the Eucharist, a significant moment in their journey of faith.
Preparation for First Communion generally begins with catechesis, where the child learns about the basic principles of faith, the meaning of the Eucharist, and how to participate in the Mass. The age for First Communion varies but occurs around 7 to 8 years old. The child must be baptized and have attended catechesis classes.
