The family Sunday experience at Old St. Patrick’s Church begins with the 9:30 a.m. Liturgy.   After opening prayers on specific Sundays children are called to attend “Liturgy of the Word.”  They are escorted behind the altar where they gather in the rectory for an interactive session that helps the children learn about the readings of the day in language and activities they’ll easily understand.   Children are separated by grades (preschool — kindergarten, first — second grade).   The children rejoin their families after the adult homily and share in the rest of the Mass.

Should you happen to be late or absent on any given Children’s Liturgy of the Word Sunday, feel free to join us the next time. All pre-schoolers through second graders are welcome.
