King of the Golden City: An Allegory for Children

A journey through your personal salvation history!

This classic story has been a favorite of both young and old for nearly a century. First published in 1921, it began as a response to a young child who asked Mother Mary Loyola, of the Bar Convent in York, England, what she must do to prepare for her First Holy Communion.

The King of the Golden City is an enchanting allegorical tale which breathes into the heart a deep understanding of Holy Communion and enkindles an intimate love for Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. This audio presentation brings the story to life with music, sound effects and the voice talents of a cast of children.

Highly recommended in Connecting with History to be used as a mini-retreat at the beginning of each school year.

King of the Golden City is a suggested resource for the introductory week of Connecting with History.
