Children's Liturgy of the Word

During the 9:00 am Sunday Masses, September through May, children are invited to participate in the Children's Liturgy of the Word.  The Children's Liturgy of the Word is a special liturgy of the word designed to accommodate them at their age and maturity level. Children’s Liturgy of the Word follows the same format as the Liturgy of the Word in the Mass. No registration is required; no attendance is taken.

The children come forward with their catechist when called by the presiding priest. After the children are dismissed, they gather with the presider/catechist in room #213 of the Parish Life Center. They return to the main worship space for the Offertory Procession. All children are welcome to participate in Children’s Liturgy of the Word.
