RIDGEFIELD—Due to the pandemic, St. Mary Parish in Ridgefield had to postpone this year’s First Communion Ceremony. But Msgr. Royal and Father Damian Pielesz have been making special outside visits to these 120 candidates since June 1.
During these visits, each child receives a special blessing, a beautiful card and special First Communion photo frame for them to make.
Parishioners thanks Msgr. Royal and Father Damian for taking the time to make these special visits and for blessing the children who had prepared to receive their First Communion this year. Parishioners took to social media to thank them for their thoughtful gesture and congratulate all the boys and girls who received this special Sacrament.
“How special, so very thoughtful!” a parishioner commented, “I’m sure this means a lot to these children and their families.”
