More information on Children’s Liturgy of the Word Before the Liturgy of the Word (Scripture readings, Gospel and Homily) during mass, our young children in preschool to 1st grade proceed to the Church Hall for Children's Liturgy of the Word. During CLW, children can hear and ponder the Word of God for their own understanding. Catechists proclaim God's Word at a level the children can understand and enjoy. They enrich this with discussion, prayers, and an activity related to the Gospel. After, children return to the main assembly to join their families for the Liturgy of the Eucharist. No registration is required.
