Holy Communion- Fall River

We attended the First Holy
Communion Liturgy on May 5 at Saint Anthony of the Desert parish in Fall River.
We are with Leah Dunn and her father Sub deacon Brian Dunn.
We visited the Holy Communion
class in March and taught them about the importance of the Sacraments/Mysteries
of Penance and the Eucharist. “God is a
good God. Yes He is!” was a song we taught them with hand actions in our
visit with the children. They happily surprised us when they performed it after
receiving their Holy Communion at the conclusion of the Liturgy.
MYO Brockton visit Convent- Dartmouth

On Sunday May 5, the MYO from St.
Theresa’s parish in Brockton came to our convent for an afternoon retreat. We
had a fruitful and fun time together learning more about the gift of our
Catholic faith. We began the session with a get to know you ice-breaker and
snacks.
Through visual media we discussed
a number of questions: Such as what does it mean to be Catholic? Why are we Maronite
Catholic? What is faith? How do we grow faith? Also, we reflected on the central
beliefs we profess in the Creed. For the
Feast of Our Lady of Lebanon, in honor of the Mother of God, we processed to
our grotto and prayed a rosary for the intention of the sick, our loved ones
and for peace. We concluded the evening
with Ramsho & supper.
