Children's Liturgy of the Word

To help children participate more fully in the Mass, the Liturgy of the Word with Children is offered during the 10:30 a.m. Sunday Mass. Children's Liturgy is an experience of prayer and dialogue with God.  It is a liturgical celebration centered on the proclamation of the Gospel in child friendly terms.  Children engage in opportunities to discuss, apply and respond in various ways to gain a better understanding of the Gospel message.  The experience speaks to the children of their connection with God, the sacredness of His word and the ways to live by it.  What a beautiful way to touch their hearts by sharing God’s inspired words with them!  

Adults and teens are encouraged to serve as prayer leaders for this ministry. The commitment is once a month serving with a team of 3 - 4 others.  (Volunteers can also choose to serve every week.) Leaders share the following responsibilities with their team: proclaim the Scriptures, lead the reflection/lesson on the Gospel, lead the singing of the Alleluia, and lead the praying of the Prayer of the Faithful.  We will provide resources, materials, and training for leaders.
