Are you ready for a revolution? Not the kind you read about in history books, but a modern-day revolution in celebrations. I’m talking about shaking things up when it comes to events like Communions and weddings.
Let’s start small and focus on revolutionizing First Communions. Imagine a world where parents don’t have to stress about extravagant expenses or conforming to societal expectations.
I vividly remember a encounter with a woman who demanded a hefty fee for flowers at our shared church on our children’s Communion day. I caved and paid up, fearing her unconventional taste. But why should we be forced to pay for peace of mind?
It’s time for a change. Let’s empower centers and parishes to offer simple, tasteful ceremonies without the pressure of costly add-ons. Catechists, who know the children best, can take charge of decorating the church with elegance and restraint.
Who says you need a professional photographer to capture these special moments? With a smartphone and a keen eye, anyone can snap beautiful photos inside the church.
And here’s the kicker: imagine all the children dressed in identical white tunics. No more worrying about expensive outfits or unequal treatment based on financial status.
After the ceremony, families are free to celebrate as they please. Whether it’s with photographers, flowers, fancy dresses, or candy tables, the choice is yours.
It’s time to start a revolution in ceremonies. Let’s challenge the status quo and embrace a new way of celebrating these milestones. Why not?
