This video will help you to learn about what a First Holy Communion is, what happens and why it is an important event in the life of a Christian.

Holy Communion is also called the lord's supper. It is a re-enactment of the last supper focusing on the moments before Jesus was arrested and taken off to be crucified.

It is during holy communion that Jesus told his disciples to drink the wine and eat the bread in memory of him.

Children first take part in holy communion when they are about seven or eight.

During this time children learn what it is to be Catholic.
