What to Write on a First Communion Card

So, your little one (or someone special in your life!) just had their First Communion. 

The ceremony was beautiful, the dress/suit was on point, and everyone got through the family photos without a meltdown (bonus points!). Now comes the slightly-less-stressful-but-still-want-to-get-it-right part: the card.

We’ve all been there. 

You stare at the blank card, pen hovering, mind swirling with questions. “What are the right words?” 

“Is there a secret handshake of Communion wishes?” 

Fear not, friends! 

Crafting the perfect First Communion message is totally doable. 

Let’s check out the below options.
