First Holy Communion

                                       On May 11th, Little Man made his First Holy Communion.

Ecce Agnus Dei

              No  photos were allowed when the children received the Holy Eucharist for the first time,
but from the choir loft, the big girls were able to see the big grin 

Little Man wore as he returned to the pew.

After mass, the First Communicants returned to the sanctuary to be enrolled in the Brown Scapular.

The very humble Fr. L helped Little Man learn his catechism and celebrated Mass.

IHS: dating from the 8th c., this is an abbreviation for "IHESUS," the way Christ's Name was spelled in the Middle Ages (despite popular belief, the monogram stands neither for "Iesus Hominum Salvator" --"Jesus Saviour of Men" -- nor for "In His Service.") -- Fisheaters
