CHILDREN’S LITURGY OF THE WORD

The Childrens Liturgy of the Word started last Sunday at 10.30am Mass and will continue during school term time. Children will be welcome to join the leaders in front of the altar after the opening prayer of the Mass. After being blessed by the priest, the group will then gather in the Meeting room for the Gospel reading, a chat and sharing of stories and an activity relating to the Gospel.
Our leaders will present the Gospel in a variety of ways, such as the use of figurines to play out the readings. Music and actions will also be part of the Children’s Liturgy in order to appreciate the Word of the Lord. Children will return to the congregation to take the Gifts up as a group then return to their families. Children may have activities to show their families, or be able to take the activity home to work on. Please discuss these with children so they can tell you what they have experienced. Today some of their work will be displayed in the foyer.
Children aged 3 and under are also welcome with parental supervision please. Any parents who are interested in helping with Children’s Liturgy, please contact Joanne on 0448 566 270.
