Cloud Nine will have a "Shopping Day" where kids and their families can come look at clothing, try it on, and choose something special for First Communion Day. There is NO COST to any child to use Cloud Nine clothing. The shopping day will be March 28, 2020 in Faith Hall at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. |
God shows His love for us in a special way in Holy Communion. "Cloud Nine" refers to a state of blissful happiness. Everyone should feel as if he or she is on "Cloud Nine" on First Communion Day. This feeling of happiness should come, first and always, from the joy of receiving the Blessed Sacrament. Everyone should feel loved and special every time he or she receives Jesus in the Sacrament.
"Cloud Nine" is a ministry at Sacred Heart Church which wants to help every kid look as awesome on the outside as he or she feels on the inside. The 7th Commandment tells us to respect creation. God entrusts property to us and we are merely his stewards. We are called to use things with respect and share what we have. One way we can respect creation is to “reduce, re-use and recycle.” The Cloud Nine Ministry collects "gently used" communion clothes (dresses and veils for girls; suits, slacks, jackets, shirts and ties for boys) for any child who would like to wear them for his or her First Communion Day. The clothing we collect is kept at Sacred Heart Church. We ask that clothing be returned after First Communion for use for future First Communion classes so that we can share again and again. |
