Some things you will see ...
ON YOUR FIRST COMMUNION DAY:
Altar: Jesus, wants us to share in His meal of the Eucharist. We celebrate this meal around a table - which we call an altar.
Flowers: The meal Jesus shares with His friends is a special meal of love and thanksgiving. We therefore, decorate the altar with flowers.
Candles: We also use candles on our altar to show that we are celebrating a special meal.
Bread and Wine: For our meal, we need the food and drink that Jesus used at the Last Supper – bread and wine. Bread gives us the strength to live and wine helps us rejoice.
Chalice: In Jesus’ time, all the people at a meal drank from one large cup to show their union with one another. This large cup is called a chalice.
