Children’s Liturgy of the Word
2024/25 Rel Ed Registration Now Open!
Children’s Liturgy of the Word
Every Sunday at the 9am Family Mass
Our 9am Sunday Mass focuses on helping our youngest parishioners develop a love for & understanding of Christ, His Word, & the Mass.
Children ages 5-10 join friends in the Church Hall following the opening prayers. They work with a catechist to understand the readings at an age-appropriate level. This is a formal worship experience adapted to make it relevant to the lives and experiences of children. Children return to Mass for the Consecration. The Playground is open after Mass! Come play with friends on our school’s beautiful playground.
