  • Children's Liturgy of the Word (CLOW)

    Children's Liturgy of the Word is a planned program to enrich our children's liturgical experience of God's presence in the ritual proclamation of the Word. CLOW invites children ages 4-1/2 years through the 4th grade to worship and pray together at the 9:00 AM and 10:45 AM Masses most Sundays of the year. Children begin in Mass and are dismissed following the opening prayer. No registration is required to participate.

    Volunteers work in teams that escort children to and from Mass, proclaim the Word, sing songs and deliver creative, engaging homilies. Musicians who can play either piano or guitar are also needed for each Mass time. Volunteers will receive the music in advance, and songs are repeated during liturgical seasons. Each team is scheduled one Sunday per month. All training and materials are provided.

    Please use the drop down box below to select a mass time that fits your schedule.
