Communion Reflection -- St. Joseph Parish, Keyport

July 29, 2019 at 12:37 p.m.
My daughter is enrolled in the religious education classes (as well as my other children) and she made her Communion this year.  I have to say that I am so pleased with how intimate and personal St. Joseph's makes the ceremony for the children.  With smaller groups of children, it really makes the sacrament so special.  Parents/godparents are even able to go and receive Communion with their child.  The song at the end of the Mass that the children sing and sign is the icing on the cake to a very special day that we will forever remember.
