The first communion is a traditional celebration for the Catholic Church, during which the child receives the sacrament of the Eucharist for the first time during the liturgy. Although it is common for a child to receive the sacrament at a reasonably early age, it requires prior preparation and faith between seven and nine years of age. This event becomes essential in the event of any Catholic family, the reflection of which can be found in several customs of different peoples and nations.
In total, there are seven sacraments of the Catholic Church, divided into consecration, healing, and ministry. This paper analyzes a situation in which a girl does not show a desire to learn, despite her abilities. There are difficult moments in everyone’s life when selfishness prevails over grace (Bollan, 2007). However, creating an atmosphere and holding the sacrament can develop a sense of something new in a child, a doorway, a special moment of God’s presence.
To prepare for this interview, I need to understand the situation better, talk to a colleague, and consult with the school administrator. Creating an atmosphere is an essential condition for a conversation since it is the feeling of the sacrament and touching God that is the primary goal of teaching. It is indispensable to create such a feeling for the girl Crystal to feel it and return to it. Having completed this atmosphere, I will need to convey to her parents and, first of all, to her that such a state is achieved with great difficulty and that the path she has chosen can lead to the sin of laziness. This conversation should not resemble a university lecture.
Over time, the ordinances and the sacraments have become a part of human life, and not the lot of a narrow circle of people (Rymarz & Hyde, 2013). Moreover, the ordinances of the Catholic Church only strengthen harmony within such a small unit of society as the family.
Parents’ inattention to the problem can turn into negative consequences for both Crystal and themselves. In any Catholic family, harmony flourishes, and any person’s weaknesses are not exposed to him in reproach but are part of his nature. Hence, places, where we can be weak together are the foundation of teaching, allowing people to share in that vision (Bollan, 2007). In the case of honesty and getting on the right path, the girl will give joy to her parents, and her interest will inflame the same interest and attention on their part, which the girl probably lacks so much. If its problems are not related to physical or mental health, they can be solved with the help of the atmosphere and one single moment.
Such moments are necessary for the life of children so that they feel the stimulus and taste of life and understand that such moments are achieved only by hard work. As the ordinances of the Catholic Church have become an integral part of everyday life, the teaching task of the church grows into the study of collaborating with the parish community and families (Rymarz & Hyde, 2013). it is possible to come to a general agreement within the entire Catholic community, starting with understanding within a small unit of society. In this regard, the sacraments and ordinances are essential, and the need for society to understand this importance is exceptionally high.
