Celebrating her First Holy Communion

Three years were spent preparing for this special day. Being able to participate in the most important part of a Holy Mass is an honor. Leah received the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist at her First Holy Communion at St. Anthony's Catholic Church.

Leah was selected to walk into the church offering grapes, symbolizing the sacramental wine. Her extended family and close friends filled the audience.

Leah received the most beautiful rosary. The rosary belonged to her older sister, Juliet when she did her First Holy Communion. The rosary was blessed and given to Leah on this special day. Leah's uncle showed her how to wrap it around her fingers. It was beautiful.

Following the ceremony, her entire extended family and friends stayed for a photo session with me. Leah was a trooper as eager family and friends jumped in and out of photo groupings.

After the blessed event, Leah and her family and friends had a blast at the reception.
