Through the Sacrament of the Eucharist we experience 

the Body and Blood of Christ –  His real presence

 

The administration of the Most Holy Eucharist to children requires that they have sufficient knowledge and careful preparation so that    they understand the mystery of Christ according to their capacity and  are able to receive the body of Christ with faith and devotion.                  Code of Canon Law 913.1

 

 

 

 

Signs of readiness:

  •   the child attends mass regularly with their family

  •   prayer is a part of the child's daily life

  •   the child shows a sense of reverence for God

  •   the child has a relationship with Jesus

  •   the child knows the difference between ordinary bread and wine and the Body and Blood of Jesus
