Children’s Liturgy of the Word
Advent Children’s Liturgy of the Word
Children’s Liturgy of the Word is a powerful, age-appropriate prayer experience for our young children (ages 4-9). It is a time to celebrate God’s presence in song and prayer and share stories throughout the liturgical year. There will be a dismissal of children and their team of leaders to the chapel immediately after the opening prayer at liturgy. The children will Break Open the Word of God as the leaders simply explain the Gospel through example and story with questions such as, “Who was in the story? Who did you like best? Who do you feel sympathy for? During the offertory, the children will return to the main assembly and join their parents in the pew.
This is a wonderful opportunity for parents to personally share their faith with those children who are part of their lives. Make a habit of talking to your child on the way home about what God (or Jesus) was saying in the gospel story. How do we, as a family, respond to God’s Word? When parents share their faith, it draws children into the heart of the Christian community and invites us all to grow.
We encourage your children to participate on Sundays during Advent when they attend the 9:15 AM liturgy at Nativity Church. NO registration and NO fees for Children’s Liturgy of the Word.
Adults, parents, and high schoolers, please consider helping. Why not reach out to offer a helping hand, using what you’ve learned to be a mentor and guide to our youngest generation? Why not consider investing in your happiness and give back your gifts to our children?
