Today’s focus is on Children's Liturgy of the Word.
       • Creating an Enriching and Meaningful Worship Experience
       • Children’s Liturgy of the Word
A Children’s Liturgy of the Word ministry was developed to provide our youngest parishioners with the opportunity to engage with Sacred Scripture. The children, after the opening prayer at Mass, will be invited to enter a suitable space where the Sunday mass readings will be proclaimed and explained. The children will be provided with an activity to enhance the meaning of the Scripture for that day. The children will return to the congregation before the presentation of gifts.

The suitable space designated for this ministry is the former “cry room” at Notre Dame de Lourdes. The room will be refreshened with a fresh coat of paint, enhanced lighting, carpet cleansing, suitable furnishings, and sacred art. Work on this room has already begun and will continue throughout the summer with a targeted start date of Autumn 2024. The ministry will be offered to our children monthly.
