FIRST COMMUNION PREPARATION Theme 'Remembering'. Remembering means more than recalling past events; it means making past events alive in the present. In telling the stories from scripture, we remember our history as the family of God. In celebrating the Eucharist, we remember all that Jesus did and continues to do for us. Besides sharing a common religious heritage, each family has its own personal story to tell. We keep this heritage alive through the stories our grandparents, parents and relatives share. Remembering is a gift that offers us roots, helps us to recognise our oneness, and provides a base for our growth as family. Remembering helps us know who we are.
