Because our school is made of 2 parishes the kids make their Communion with their parish and not specifically as a class. This is disappointing and confusing to some of the kids and so the school has taken to turning May Crowning into two celebrations. The 8th graders crown Mary and the 2nd graders celebrate their First Communion as a class - suits, dresses and all.
The 2nd graders form a reception line and greet everyone as they enter church.
John told me that nearly all of his Scouts gave him the Boy Scout handshake as he made his way down the aisle. He was pretty pleased by and proud of his boys.
They 2nd grade was responsible for the readings and petitions. Here is JTO reading the closing reflection.
And the whole class singing a song in honor of their First Communion.
