Gaynell Cronin's best-selling sacramental preparation program, originally published by Ave Maria Press, is now available from St. Anthony Messenger Press. The Forgiveness of the Lord and The Table of the Lord are designed to help parents prepare their young children for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and First Eucharist.

The basic catechesis is done at home with the support of the parish community and a program director. The director's role is to prepare the parents and to involve the parish community in the sacramental preparation. While the majority of the catechesis is done in the home, both programs are enriched by group meetings which introduce the parents to their task and by community gatherings for the reception of the sacraments.

The Child's Book consists of ten lessons each revolving around a specific action (for example, Celebrating), a scripture story illustrating that action (The Wedding Feast at Cana), and one part of the eucharistic celebration (the Introductory Rite). The child learns stories, prayers, activities and mass responses. 104 pages. Photos and four-color illustrations.Family BookDirector's Manual
