The Receiving Jesus: My Guide to the Mass take-with-you-book helps children become comfortable going to Mass by showing them not only when to sit, stand, and kneel and what to say but also why we do the things we do at Mass. They’ll learn about the roles of the different people they see at Mass, like the ushers, lectors, cantors, deacons, and priests. This is the perfect book for them to bring to Mass!
As they grow in understanding, their love for Christ and for the Mass will also grow deeper.

I did not look forward to taking this course and getting a certificate - just so our 2nd grader could complete her first Reconciliation. I was very surprised how much I as a cradle Catholic, was shown a different way of looking at "confession". I was very moved by the presentation of the different individual presenters. AND I learned a lot to pass on not only to the 2nd grader but to her older and younger siblings and cousins. I truly appreciated this course and the insight I have gained from it.
For any Catholic parent, this course can be a valuable investment in both personal and family spirituality. It provides helpful teachings that empower parents to confidently navigate the challenges of raising children in the faith and transform their families into more God-loving. This course serves as a powerful reminder of the family’s purpose and offers practical wisdom to live it out daily. I particularly enjoyed the videos, especially since I’m an auditory learner. The course personally moved me.
I think this course is good to do because if parents take it to heart it makes the sacrament a big deal vs just going through the motions. I think it’s easy to fall into the trap of ‘well this is just the next step’ vs feeling so lucky and grateful to be given this gift.
We are homeschoolers and when I found this I knew we had to try it. We have done this course (and the 1st communion one) 3 times each because we enjoyed it so much!!
I completed the course and loved the way it was explained. The words that moved me was” we confess and do the penance, where in the back father does a penance for us”
