Catholic Stories for Children: Sunday Football (My First Holy Communion)

By Anne Joachim

What do you do when football club clashes with Sunday Mass? Jack, a seven year old who has just started in Year 3 at a new school, has to make a decision about whether to give up Sunday football club in order to go to Mass on Sunday. At age seven, he is old enough to go to Mass every week, and he is about to start First Holy Communion classes. But in this story, he learns that some things in life are more important even than football...A Catholic story, suitable for children of all ages, but particularly for those of around seven years who are preparing for First Holy Communion. Suitable for parents to read to children, for catechists to use as a discussion point, and with simple enough language for children to read themselves.Children will learn that Mass is very special - the bread and wine become Jesus' Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity, and that the Church teaches that Catholics must go to Mass on Sundays and holy days of obligation.
