Paschal Baylon  
 
Paschal Baylon  - Spain   - 16th Century

The month of May is First Communion time in many places over the world. First Communion celebrates the wonder of a child and the wonder of God’s assurance to us .. ’You are my friends’.

It is a time to remember and say thanks. To say thanks is the best gift of a human being. We celebrate thanks at church. Paschal Baylon spent hours praying in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament. His thanks was expressed in the every duty of door-keeping.

We are always being asked to open doors or answer phones for others in the duties of life, in business, in hospital and elsewhere. The Jesus of our First Communion shows us ways of opening our hearts to others and giving us the strength that we need. .
