Dear Jesus,
Bless Olivia as she is coming forward to receive Holy Communion for the first time.
May this day be an initial step into a life-long love of the Eucharist.
Give her a hunger for this sacred food so that she can turn to you for comfort, guidance, and wisdom as she grows into full discipleship.
Thank you for her innocence and goodness.
May her hands, extended in anticipation of your Body and Blood, inspire all of us to cherish this sacred sacrament.
Amen
May the Lord BLESS Olivia Ruth and keep her. The Lord make his face shine upon her and be Gracious unto her. The Lord lift up his countenance upon her and give her peace.
Number 6: 24-26
