- Behavior that exemplifies that respect
- Remember to bring books, folders, materials to class each week - "Consider it as you would your sports equipment or musical instrument."
Liturgy of the Word from 3 years old through second grade
We offer Liturgy of the Word for children from 3 years old through second grade throughout the year at the 10:00AM Mass on Sunday. Monsignor Mike invites the children to come up during Mass. They are blessed by Monsignor Mike and follow a volunteer catechist to a side sacristy for about 15 minutes. The catechist shares the Gospel story in their own language and they sing a song or two. Children return to their family during the offeratory with a flyer that explains the Gospel story.
Please contact Geri Nehls at 249-7288, ext 230for more information.

Kidz Club is an opportunity for children to come and learn more about their faith in a fun way. Through stories, song, games, and crafts the tradition of the faith comes alive. We meet once a month, on a day that is convenient to the participants. It is facilitated by parents and staff.
