Thank you for giving me the opportunity to receive the Holy Eucharist. Thank you for being present in my life every day and guiding me on my faith journey. Help me to always remember the sacrifice of Jesus and how much he loves us. May I always show my love for you and others in all that I do.

Prayer of Forgiveness

Lord God,
I’m sorry for the times I’ve hurt others and sinned against you. Thank you for forgiving me and showing me mercy. I promise to do better, to be kinder and more understanding. May I always remember to ask for your guidance in times of temptation and to choose what is right.

Prayer of Protection

Dear God,
Please watch over me and protect me from all harm. Keep me safe in your loving embrace and give me the strength to face any challenges that come my way. Help me to trust in you and to cling to your promises, knowing that you will never leave me nor forsake me.

Prayer of Faith

Lord Jesus,
I believe that you are truly present in the Holy Eucharist. When I receive you in Communion, I know that I’m not just receiving bread and wine, but your very Body and Blood. Help me to understand the mystery of your love and to grow closer to you every day. May I always trust in your mercy and grace.

Prayer of Offering

God of all creation,
I offer you my whole self, body, mind, and soul. I surrender everything to you, trusting that you will guide me and love me always. May my life be a living sacrifice to you, offering all that I do in service of your Kingdom. Help me to be a witness to your love in all that I say and do.

These prayers are just the beginning of the journey of prayer and faith that can enrich a child’s life. By instilling a prayerful mindset, kids can remain connected to God and continue to grow in their faith. May all children who receive their First Communion experience the beauty and grace of this sacred sacrament and the power of prayer in their lives.
