First Communion - Loretto Academy - 1955
Photograph - First Communion at Loretto Academy - 1955 - El Paso, Texas. First Communion is an important ceremony in the Catholic Church. Generally, children between 7-8 years old will celebrate their first Holy Communion, which is the first time they will participate in the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist, or the sharing of the bread and wine. In Western civilizations, first Holy Communion is an important family celebration and children will receive religious instruction prior to the event. Girls will generally wear white communion dresses and veils as symbols of their purity and religious devotion, while boys will be dressed formally with a standard tie color, such as red. http://peopleof.oureverydaylife.com/happens-during-first-communion-3101.html
