Today, many parents treat Baptism and First Communion as rites of passage but not as links to a faith community. This book highlights First Communion as an important spiritual link to grandparents, aunts and uncles. It builds on family religious heritage, giving the child several links to their own spiritual background, helping them feel more at home in church.
Grandma's First Communion is centered around one particular family's photos and memorabilia that spans four generations. And most important of all, the author has included a young child's response to family photos, her curiosity about a tiny old prayer book and her interest in the faith of her grandparents. A note to parents is also included in the book.
