1.
2. Be sure that your
hands are clean!
Upon entering the
church, bless yourself
with holy water.
When your teacher
says, “Jesus in the
Blessed Sacrament”,
genuflect in unison
with your class and
answer, “We adore
thee.”
3. Sit and kneel up
straight. Doing so
shows respect for God
and His church.
Do NOT visit with your
classmates.
Participate fully by
listening to the
readings, Gospel and
homily, and by singing
and saying the
responses and prayers.
4. Maintain silence when
entering and leaving
church, out of respect
for the Eucharist.
If you are called upon
to answer a question,
always stand and
speak clearly.
When leaving Mass,
say good morning to
the priest and shake
hands.
5. Be sure you are quietly
giving the sign of
peace only to people
directly beside, in
front, and behind you.
Follow your teacher’s
guidelines for receiving
Holy Communion.
If you are not
receiving, place one
finger over you lips,
and you will receive a
blessing.
