A Prayer Request

Since today is First Communion Day at our Parish and others (and if not at yours, it will be soon, if it hasn't been recently) I'd like to offer up a prayer for the children receiving communion for the first time: that they be able to understand and thrill at the reality of Christ's presence in the Eucharist; that they (if they can't fully grasp transubstantiation) can be in awe of what they are experiencing today; and for that matter - that all of us, who are well past our first communion, remember, each time we receive, the wonderous gift Jesus gave us in the Eucharist.
