Liturgy of the Word with Children

Liturgy of the Word with Children (LWWC) is offered during the 9 a.m. Sunday Mass for children in Kinder through 5th grades. Younger children are welcome to attend if accompanied by a parent.

LWWC follows the same rhythm and purpose as the Liturgy of the Word and is considered as participating fully in Mass. A team of prayer leaders guide the children to the Family Center to proclaim the Scriptures from an approved text especially for children, and the Psalm and Gospel Acclamation are sung. The prayer leaders help the children discover for themselves what God is saying and how to live the Gospel message. The children profess their faith, offer Prayers of the Faithful and then return to their families for the Liturgy of the Eucharist.  Contact natalie-mohr@st-theresa.org to volunteer in this wonderful ministry.
