First Communion is approaching. The children make their own communion bread with the help of the parents.

Stoles were also made (by an adult) and the children take them home and decorate them however they want (with parents help.) This is something they take home with them. Also hand made pottery chalices are ordered. During communion, each child and his or her family come forward. Their own chalice is used for them and their family to receive communion. The chalices also go home with the children after the service.
