PHOTO JOURNAL ENTRY: Roadrunner's First Holy Communion


Some presents/souvenirs for Roadrunner on his special day
mini monstrance Eucharist lapel pin

special breakfast for our first communicant, themed all throughout, including the placemat which bears the words:  "Domine non sum dignus.." (Lord, I am not worthy..)

siblings all excited for the first communicant

hmm.. yum!


I patterned Roadrunner's cake image design on the one I designed for Webster 3 years ago.  Here I just finished placing decorations (chalice and Eucharist, dove figure, plastic rosary and bible) on the cake which was picked up yesterday.

Very pleased with how it turned out.

Consecration:  the most important part of the Mass

Almost time.  Pity we could not get any closer to get a better photo, to avoid causing any distraction during Holy Mass.

"Thank you, Fr Jordan!"

A beautiful blessing for the children from a beautiful Capuchin priest.

Congratulations, dear Roadrunner!  May Our Eucharistic Lord truly be Food to sustain you in your Journey.  May the joy in your heart on your First Holy Communion, and the love of our Lord stay in your heart forever!

Domine, non sum dignus ut intres sub tectum meum.  Sed tantum dic verbo et sanabitur anima mea!
