First Holy Communion...another milestone

So next week, my son will be receiving his first Holy Communion!



Am excited for him, such a blessed milestone, after 1.5 years of going for catechism almost every saturday that is delivered in Kiswahili (no less)


Of course, my mind goes back to my own first Holy Communion day

It was in Holy Family minor basilica in the centre of town. My sister and I wore matching outfits that probably had 90% net fabric (i should look for that picture!). I remember the outfits were made my my mothers friend at a place near Kongoni primary school

I entrance hymn which I recall vividly was

...Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
Enter his courts with praise,
Today will be, a Joyful day,
Enter his gates with.....

So this is my prayer to my son


Amen!!!
