For Ages 4-2nd grade
Sundays September-May | 9 a.m. Mass
Children's Liturgy of the Word meets every Sunday during the 9 a.m. Mass. During the Liturgy of the Word, adults will accompany the children to their classroom downstairs for fun and age-appropriate activities related to the Mass readings. Children begin Mass in pews with families and then are called forward; they return after the collection. CLW is open to all children ages 4 - 2nd grade.
Registration is not required but apreciated--it will help us know how many to expect.

We meet on Sundays 6:30-8 p.m. (after the 5:30 Mass) in the lower level of the Church. A meal will be served every night, the participants will learn something new, meet in small groups, play games, and pray together.
