Children’s Liturgy of the Word for Ages 5-10

Children’s Liturgy of the Word is held during the 10:30 Mass. 

After the Opening Prayer the children and the children’s ministers are sent forth (to the BVM Room, below the Chapel) to listen to the Sunday Scriptures (from the Lectionary for Masses with Children), to sing, to pray, and to participate in a “dialogue” homily.  After the General Intercessions/Prayers of the Faithful they return to the Main Assembly.  Parents who wish to accompany their child/ren are welcome to do so.

We are always looking for more folks (tweens, teens and adults) to join the team led my Mariann McCormally. All volunteers undergo a screening interview, a criminal background check, read and sign the “Ethics and Integrity in Ministry” Code of Conduct, and must be certified in “Protecting God’s Children,” the diocesan safe environment training program.  For more information contact Mariann McCormally (816) 381-9163 or email below.
