First Confession

  • Wonderful preparation for children
  • Helps them prepare for the sacrament of Reconciliation
  • Mother Mary Loyola's vivid storytelling touches children's hearts
  • Gives kids an understanding of the incredible graces flowing from confession
  • A beautiful book that will instill in kids a lifelong appreciation for the sacrament
The greatest challenge in preparing young children for the Sacrament of Penance is in making confession a habit to which they will be voluntarily attracted. We can require their presence at catechism class, and compel them to go to confession, but without this crucial ingredient, we cannot hope to dispel the all-too-common view that it is an onerous task to be studiously avoided.

It is precisely this difficulty that Mother Mary Loyola addresses with this book. She knew children's minds so well--how they crave being treated like adults--and thus she avoids all that is oversimplified or saccharine, a quality which gives all of her work such broad appeal, even to adults. Her vivid storytelling brings to life an irresistible feeling of the comfort and joy the child will find in the forgiveness of their loving father. Who, then, would dream of ever avoiding such sweet medicine?
