Children's Liturgy of the Word

Catechists' Notes [1] | Meeting Notifications [2] | Sunday Reading's Faith Connection [3]

Another faith formation opportunity for children in grades 1-5 is Children’s Liturgy of the Word.  It takes place on Sundays during the 9:30 A.M. and 11:30A.M. Masses.

Children are dismissed from the Sunday Mass prior to the Scripture readings  and the readings are proclaimed to them from a children’s lectionary.  A homily/reflection is given to help them understand the readings on their level.  Following the Prayers to the Faithful, they re-enter the church and continue the community celebration of the Eucharist with their parents.  All children in grades 1-5 are invited.

No advance registration is necessary.

The following alternating scheduled is used:

  • First and third Sunday of every monthGrades 1 & 2
  • Second and fourth Sunday of every monthGrades 3, 4 & 5

Children’s Liturgy of the Word is not celebrated on a fifth Sunday of the month.

"Established in the love of the Father, with faith in Jesus Christ, and under the guidance of the Holy Spirit."
