Scripture
Jesus said, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. (Matthew 19:14)
Mission Statement
Liturgy of the Word with Children is a ministry that provides children 5-10 years old with an age-appropriate proclamation of the Sunday Scriptures, allowing for their full, conscious and active participation in the Mass.
Ministry Description
Volunteers should have a love of children and a willingness to proclaim the Sunday Scriptures to them, pray with them and share a reflection on the Sacred Scriptures using the leader materials provided. Knowledge of the Bible is helpful. A patient and calm temperament is beneficial. Leaders should also set a good example of Christian life and attend Mass regularly. All leaders are expected to 1) complete a three-hour VIRTUS "Protecting God's Children" training, 2) pass a criminal background check before beginning and 3) attend a one-hour training meeting in early August.
