Sunday, April 21st, our First Eucharist candidates and their families came together for a family retreat as the final preparation for their upcoming Sacrament. The retreat included a Church and Sanctuary Scavenger Hunt, a symbolic celebration of the Passover sacrifice, and breaking bread together with a feast prepared by the Knights of Columbus.
Matt Fortier lead us in the Passover meal which helps us to remember the night when God rescued the children of Israel from slavery in Egypt. The traditional meal the Jewish people eat on the first day of their 8-day Passover holiday commemorates the night the angel of death “passed over” the homes of the Israelites. This is called the Seder meal.
Special thanks to the Knights of Columbus and their families, and Matt and Kirsten Fortier for your support and love for the youth of Our Lady of Grace Parish.
