St. Ann's is excited to bring Children's Liturgy back!
We have recruited a team of leaders who are committed to celebrating the Liturgy of the Word with your children in a child-friendly format, while you participate in Mass. Children age 4-7 will be invited to come forward just after the Opening Prayer for Mass. The children will process to one of the classrooms off the Parish Hall to experience the readings read from a Children's lectionary with a reflection on the readings that is better suited for them. The children will return to their families during the Offertory.
When? During the Sunday 8:30am and 11:00am Masses
Who can join? Children age 4-7 years old are invited to participate. Younger children can participate WITH a parent.
Adults Interested in Helping? While we currently have a team of trained leaders ready to go, we would love to grow the team. The more the merrier and the lighter the work load. If you are an adult interested in becoming a trained leader let us know. We also need adults, who are VIRTUS trained to assist as an extra set of hands duirng the sessions. For the safety of our children, two VIRTUS trained adults must be in the room at all times. If you are trained, or are willing to participate in the one-time 3-hour training "Protecting our Children" consider helping us out.
