Book Overview

Remembrance of My First Holy Communion (Boys)

Remembrance of My First Holy Communion, by Sister Mary Theola and illustrated by George Angelini, is a beloved, timeless Catholic keepsake missal designed specifically for kids receiving their First Holy Communion.

This "Traditions edition" of Remembrance of My First Holy Communion, designed for young boys, is not a storybook or deep theology dive--it is a personal, portable prayer companion that marks the big day: the moment a child first receives Jesus in the Eucharist. Parents and godparents gift it as a memento, often with room for names, dates, photos, or notes. What makes Remembrance of My First Holy Communion important? It turns a one-time sacrament into a lifelong tool--helping children (and later adults) stay connected to Mass, prayer, and faith. Popular in Catholic families; many adults often open their childhood copy decades later for nostalgia or quick devotions.
