THE STORYTELLERS TO THE CHILDREN OF THE COMMUNITY
At Mass, children are invited to come forward to attend the Children’s Liturgy of the Word. The children go to the Kiva in the Family Life Building and the scripture is proclaimed to them. This ministry serves the children from kindergarten to fifth grade, by proclaiming God’s Word on a level that they understand, and by reflecting on its meaning in their lives. Children gather with peers and adult leaders to pray, listen, sing, and discuss the readings. Parents are always welcome to attend with their children.
CLW ministers are asked to serve only once per month. Leaders, assistants, monitors and song leaders are needed. Training is provided.
You may help with CLW at any of the Masses where there is a need, however, you may attend any of the weekend Mass times. You are not required to go to the same Mass where you are helping with CLW.
Requirements:
- An enthusiasm to work with children
- A desire to learn more about Scripture
- One hour per month to prepare with the Children’s Liturgy of the Word team
- Attend the Keeping Children Safe training session once every two years.
