Abstract

Preparation of children and their parents for the first confession and Holy Communion
is today a serious challenge for catechists and pastors. In many families, the religious dimension
of the ceremony of First Communion is completely overlooked or marginalized,
while excessive importance is attached to the outer binding of this event. In the face of
this situation, the article reflects on how to effectively affect children and parents and how
to plan the process of formation of both groups to bring them closer to the essence of the
sacraments of penance and the Eucharist.
