Children’s Liturgy of the Word
What is Children’s Liturgy of the Word?
During the 9:30am Mass every Sunday, 2 volunteers take the children out during Mass and break up into 2 smaller groups of 15-20 children where they hear the Sunday readings in words they can understand. It is encouraged that only children in grades K – 2nd attend. The volunteers are provided a Children’s Liturgy of the Word Supplement Guide where the lessons are explained and questions are provided to help you facilitate the class.
What is expected of volunteers?
The estimated commitment to join this team is 20 minutes once a month. Volunteers working with children are required to attend a Protecting God’s Children workshop within 90 days of completing a background check.
