The 2010 First Communion Story Contest is Live!

by admin on March 8, 2010

First Communion Story ContestLast year we started the First Communion Story website so you could share the fond memories of your First Communion day.

With First Communion season approaching again we are running a new First Communion Story contest!

Here are the rules:

  1. Submit a First Communion story about you or your children by 3/31/10.
  2. Story must be true and a GOOD memory.
  3. You must own copyright on any photos you use in your story.
  4. Voting on stories will run through 4/30/10.
  5. Voters may vote for more than one story but please only vote for a story once.
  6. The winners will be announced on 5/03/10.
  7. The first prize winner will receive a First Communion dress or a $100 gift certificate at Aquinas and More Catholic Goods!
  8. Two runner-up prizes for $25 gift cards to Aquinas and More Catholic Goods will be awarded as well.
  9. First Communion dress must be chosen from the selection available on the Aquinas and More website.

Now, we really want the word to get out about the contest so we are also announcing a…

Blogger Contest!

Here are the rules:

  1. Write a blog post about the contest and link to the First Communion Stories website and our First Communion gift store.
  2. Send an email to ianataquinasandmoredotcom to let us know about your post.
  3. On May 3rd, 2010 we will choose two random winners of $50 gift cards.
  4. On May 3rd, 2010 we will also choose our favorite post and award another $50 gift card to that blogger.
  5. As a blogger you are welcome to enter the contest.
  6. If you are an Aquinas and More affiliate you will earn referral fees just as you would for any other link.

All award decisions will be made by Aquinas and More Catholic Goods and are final.

My First Holy Communion was special in two ways. First I got to share the joy and beauty of it with my twin sister, Marion. We purchased our dresses and veils at a store where we always bought all of our clothes, because they were willing to order another one of the same outfit. The second reason it was a special day was because it was on Marion’s Godfather’s birthday. We made it in St.Joseph The Patron Church in Brooklyn New York, many years ago.

Are you going to be running this contest again? I’ve been watching for it since my son made his First Communion in 2011 and he has a neat story to tell.
