Fed by the Lord: At-Home Scriptural Formation to Prepare Children for First Communion - Paperback

by Leonard J. Delorenzo (Author)

God feeds his people in the most personal and intimate way. When we receive the Eucharist, we are being fed by God and changed in mind and heart by this most wondrous gift. Fed by the Lord provides at-home scriptural formation for children preparing for First Communion. This resource, written for the adults who guide them, nourishes relationships between children and parents as well as the Lord who feeds them. Fed by the Lord focuses on twelve stories of God feeding his people. By studying together the actions of God in Scripture adults can prepare children to connect with the Word of God--Jesus Christ--who reveals himself through this biblical journey and comes to us personally in the Eucharist.
