The preparation began many months ago-
The preparation began many months ago-
Filled with lessons and important things to learn and know.

Week in and week out, the teachers prepared a lesson-
To get their message through to each child, one by one.
+
And before long, all those classes turned into looking forward to the big day-
The day, when everyone would participate, all headed the same way.
+
The dresses and suits were bought, and prepared carefully-
To accommodate a great celebration, for the whole parish to see.

And then the day came when all dressed up, the children stood in line-
A little nervous, but so much joy, onecould easily find.
+
Beautiful little children dressed in their very best-
A wonderful celebration, with the whole parish,becoming the special guests.
+
As they walk in procession into St. John of the Cross Catholic Church,
in New Caney, with their teachers, the altar servers, and Father Hai-
May everyone feel the blessings of this day,
as each precious child passes by.

A special moment to remember, for God's Little Ones,
their First Communion Day-
In the month of April and May on two beautiful Saturdays.
