a basic foundation as they help their children approach the
Eucharistic table for the first time.

Communicant who learns that receiving the Eucharist means taking
on more of a "grown-up" responsibilityto care for
others as Jesus did.
- In the witness segment, real-life parents reflect on
how they prepared for their children's First Communion.
- The teaching segment explains how the Eucharist calls
us to live our lives as a sign that we will "do in the memory"
what Jesus did for us.

with a Hispanic song, "Pan de Vida," the Bread of Life.
