Erika made her First Holy Communion on May 2 of this year! It was a beautiful Mass!

The cake, beautifully decorated by her friend, Gemma:
"My favorite part was going up to Communion. When Father Harris put Jesus on my tongue, I was so happy. I smiled. I have now received the Eucharist about five times."
Jesus, we trust in Your mercy and love. Keep Erika's hope strong
always. We thank You very much for coming into her soul through this
glorious Sacrament. May she love You
always!


Congratulations Erika! You were so lovely on your special day!

So happy to hear your blessed, CHristmas news!
LUV catching up on your blog and all the sumptious pictures. So impressed that somehow, admist all the sleeveless dresses out there, your FHC group is ALL dressed modestly covering their arms like ladies at Mass. You must have a special parish to all be on the same wavelength.
God bless you all!
