Children's Liturgy of the Word for 4-year olds - 1st graders is held during the 11:30 a.m. Mass on several Sundays each month (May 19). Children gather before the 1st Reading and walk together to a nearby classroom to listen to the readings and the Gospel in a form that they can easily understand and also do a fun activity that goes along with what they just heard before returning to their parents at Mass. A lead "teacher" and 2 helpers are in the classroom with the children. Parents should take their child to the restrooms before Mass so that the limited time in the classroom will be focused on the readings. For more information or if you would like to help with this important parish ministry, please contact Heather Galvan at [email protected] or call 361-649-4646. Children's Liturgy of the Word will not be held during the summer months (June, July & August) but will return on Sunday, September 15.
