Mimi is a unique little flamingo, and many didn't understand her ways of doing and thinking. Some misconstrued that Mimi was shy and didn't make sense. One thing was for sure, Mimi knew she loved to explore and wanted to see the northern lights even though she was a flamingo; even so, anything was possible in Mimi's mind.
First Holy Communion day is the most important and memorable day in the life of a Catholic child. Eucharist is the ineffable gift, and Holy Communion is the fusion between us and Jesus. Children start longing to receive Holy Communion at an early age but have to wait till they reach the age of discernment. In preparation, they attend a yearlong classes and training, either through the Catholic School or the Sunday School Faith Formation classes. At the end of this lengthy preparation, we still ask the same question: Are we really ready?Family is the domestic church, and parents are the primary catechism teachers. Knowledge is power and education is empowerment. Being involved actively in faith formation, in Holy Communion preparation, being a teacher and director of religious education for the past several years, answering the parents and reassuring them again and again, I thought of putting it together, hence this book, Preparing Your Child for Holy Communion: A Guide for Parents.
Living in Faith Every Day is simply about exercising faith in God through everyday life, not because it makes life's troubles easier, but it allows a person to gain endurance through them no matter the size and/or length of the storm. It is knowing that you will leave the storm better than you entered it. It is about being in partnership and relationship with God by adhering to his Word just as someone would allow his/her friend, spouse, or relative to influence his/her decisions through advice or help. Richardson briefly yet strongly advocates for us to use our past failures and accomplishments as a fuel of reflection of how far we have come, not for them to define who we are as a person.Living in Faith Every Day is a faith-based book surrounding a few of many important values of living a life indulged in faith. When we dissect the word faith, "faith" in the grammatically correct sense is defined as "complete trust or confidence in someone or something." In the biblical sense, "faith" is "the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." In obvious sight, faith is simply practicing to choose hope in a hopeless situation rather than hopelessness, which is what Richardson exemplifies through this book Living in Faith Every Day. Living in Faith Every Day, simply put, is a book with steps to help you achieve greater faith in him.
