Children's Liturgy of the Word will include children from kindergarten to those that have not yet received the Sacrament of First Eucharist.
Once a child has received the Sacrament of First Eucharist, they should be in attendance for the full Mass.
It is our belief that if they are of the age to receive Eucharist it is important for them to remain fully present in the celebration of the entire liturgy with their families.
Children's Liturgy of the Word is offered during most Sunday morning masses. Children are gathered during the Mass before the readings and they are led to Carmel Hall where they hear the scriptures and talk about them on their level with adult catechists. The children return to Mass to celebrate the Liturgy of the Eucharist.
Children's Liturgy of the Word does not meet during the months of June, July and August.
