January 6, 2012 – Catechism 1234-1245

This talks about the infant that is baptized being brought to the alter during the Our Father instead of receiving Holy Communion, but that didn’t happen in our baptisms of the boys. I do wonder about Holy Communion and if our boys should wait until their “class” goes. Paul already ask if he can eat Jesus too. I know he doesn’t fully understand what he is asking, but then again, I don’t fully understand transubstantiation either. His belief is strong enough that he feels he can call it Jesus when he sees it. And he calls Jesus on the crucifix Jesus as well. Whether he knows it is the same Jesus may not be there yet. When he hears names, they all tend to mean the same person. St. Edward was yesterday’s saint and he thought it was St. Edward, the train from Thomas. He also asked for St. Diesel to pray for us one night. So, obviously I don’t think he is there yet, but he is asking and I am not sure if he should wait another 5-7 years.
