In the Mary Month of May: a Month of Blogging with a Special Emphasis on the Action of Grace

Because it’s the first of May and I LOVE May, I am hoping to do a post/day every day, with special emphasis on the action of God’s grace in our lives. For the record and in full disclosure, I will be highlighting some previously published entries from this blog….although there’s no telling where the wind will take me! As in, I plan to add brand new content too. 

 

I can tell that it’s First Communion time because lots of people are coming to my blog via an Internet search for:

• First Communion Novenas;

• A Letter to My Daughter on her First Communion Day; and

• Common Loons in Minnesota

(Okay, so that last one is an anomaly, I’m sure.)

 

To that end, i.e. the end in making your internet searches easier, I am sharing the letters that I wrote to Maria (aka Cate) , Avila (aka Felicity) and Camille (aka Angela) with you. Even if your son/daughter has already made his/her First Communion, you can still give them a letter.   God’s grace and love are new every morning!

I am also more than happy to share the First Communion novena that we used to do at our church. It’s a bit more geared toward little girls, being flowery and all, but you can certainly focus on the daily virtues with your son(s) and have them dutifully crank out the drawings.
