First Holy Communion programme for children with additional needs

My FirstHoly Communion

Prepared by Stephen Wareing

“This book is a treasure, revealing so deeply theheart of Jesus given to us in Holy Communion.

Many other programmes that prepare children withadditional needs for the sacraments are simply anadaptation of a regular programme. This one, by contrast,has been written very specifically with these children inmind and this shines through on every page.Jesus rebukes his disciples when they try to prevent little children fromcoming to Him, reminding them that it is to them that the Kingdom ofHeaven belongs (Matthew 19:14). This programme takes those words toheart, not just in seeking to break down any barriers that we continue toplace in the way of the children seeking to come to Jesus but in revealingthe full meaning of the Kingdom belonging to the smallest.

So often I find that it is children and adults withadditional needs who have a particular

gift for drawing us into communionwith each other and with God.

Stephen Wareing has created aresource that respondsbrilliantly to this gift that peoplewith additional needs have.

This work has that simplicity andfocus on what is most important.

So much thought and care has beengiven to make this as accessible aspossible, with every word carefully chosen.The illustrations are beautiful and soevocative in bringing these words to life.The suggested hymns, leader’s notes and

additional resources all contribute tomaking this a really precious

resource.Fr. Tom Dubois
