What a good idea. In order to transition the first graders to, or get them ready for, First Reconciliation and First Communion in second grade, the church where we have Catechesis is having a Baptism Renewal Ceremony. During Catechesis tonight the first graders decorated white stoles that they will wear during the ceremony. I have no idea what they will do during the ceremony, but I just think it a great way to get them thinking about the Sacraments they will have next year...a good way to get the dialogue started. Anyways, it's not for a couple of weeks, but it will give me time to break out Liam's scrapbook so we can look at his Baptism pictures again and talk about that day, who was there and why it was special.
