Catholic Stories for Children: Christmas Carol Concert: Christmas Carol Concert

Noah is practising the recorder every single day so that he can play for his school’s Christmas Carol Concert, but he doesn’t seem to be improving and he isn’t the only one in his family who is worried about what might happen on the 17th December. When he becomes quiet and withdrawn at his First Confession classes, Noah needs a reminder that we can trust in Jesus in every situation. Things don’t turn out quite as he expects, but he learns that everything works out for the best for those who love God! A Catholic story, suitable for children of all ages, but particularly for those of around seven years who are preparing for First Holy Communion. Suitable for parents to read to children, for catechists to use as a discussion point, and with simple enough language for children to read themselves. Children will learn that Confession is a sacrament where sins are confessed and forgiven, and that God’s Divine Mercy means we can always trust in Jesus, even in the most difficult moments, and especially when things don’t seem to be turning out quite how we want or expect.
