MINISTRY: CHILDREN’S LITURGY 
English Speakers

The Children’s Liturgy program enhances the experience of the mass for young children, by bringing the Word of God to them is a way they can understand. Children in grades kindergarten through fourth grade are invited to participate. Having come to mass with their families, the children are sent forth from the church with a blessing, after the opening prayer. A teacher (this could be you!) leads them to the clubroom or the rectory dining room, depending on space availability. There the children listen and respond to the Gospel story of the day. Their responses include discussion, drawing, music and prayer. After the homily is over in church, the children are brought back into church in time to participate in bringing up the gifts. They return to their seats to join their families for the rest of the Mass.

 This ministry is held during the 5:00 p.m. Saturday Mass from October through May.

 Both parents and high school students are encouraged to consider helping in this ministry. The commitment is to help one Saturday each month.
