Going to church with young children
Children (PreK-2nd grade), their parents, and caregivers
Jesus said, "let the little children come to me." (Mt 19:14)
What is it like to go to mass with young children? How can we enter into the liturgy as parents? How can our young children enter into the celebration? As parents and caregivers of young children, we struggle with this, and we also have strategies to share. So many parents feel run down after taking their children to mass. How can we learn from each other to be able to pray the liturgy with our families?
Saturday, January 9th (10-11:30)
10:00 Gathering prayer: A Child's Book of the Mass
