Students preparing for First Communion, accompanied by their parents, toured stations set up in the church for Jesus Day on Saturday morning to learn about the special objects and places in the church.
They also learned about the Eucharist and church music and saw a puppet show and made their own special pew signs for First Communion.
Two special tables were set up in Room 111 for the Breaking of Bread and explanation of the Eucharist with readings from the Bible. The pastor, the Rev. Fr. Ralph Thomas, and the Rev. Fr. Matthew Ischay presided at the tables.
Students gathered in the music room to learn more about church music from organist Heidi Guttermuth.
There were cards at each station in the church that students could take to read of the importance and uses for the sacristy, tabernacle, pulpit and lectionary, priest’s chair, the altar, the holy water fonts, the statues and the stations of the cross. One of the stations was the table holding the “ordinary” hosts and cruets for water and wine to be brought up to be blessed in the Mass.
The First Communion students are Conner Bender, Erin Coffman, Seth Finegan, Ian Forester, Jenna Gruic, Sydney Harrison, Aiden Harvey, Liam Harvey, Jack Hooper, Carolyn Inglis, Kalob Jordan, Tara Lanham, Matthew Limas, Jesse Matusicky, Jason McBryer, Hannah McGraw, Madelynn Misanko, Alyson Misenelter, Joseph Moran, , Matthew Naccari, Elora Nicholas, Joshua Niinisto, Matthew Pramuka, Benjamin Pepper, Edgar Rosales, Daysi Sandoval, Alexis Shaffer, Mary Claire Smitt and Jordan Teffner
