Children’s Liturgy of the Word has returned to Our Lady of the Fields!

Beginning Sunday, June 12 and running the second and fourth Sundays of each month this summer, Children’s Liturgy of the Word will take place during the 9:30AM Mass.

Children ages 4 to 7 years old will be called forth from the assembly to celebrate and reflect on the Sunday Scripture readings in an age appropriate way. The children are led through prayers, songs and readings that are adapted to their level of understanding. Attending Mass together is a part of being a Catholic Family, while Children’s Liturgy of the Word allows children to enter the celebration more fully by catering to their needs. Children return to the assembly in time for the Liturgy of the Eucharist. (All children under 4 years old must be accompanied by an adult.)

Children’s Liturgy of the Word Videos:

In response to the pandemic, Heidi and Mark Witte have been producing free 25 minute Children’s Liturgy videos every week since March. The inter-activeness of their program encourages children to participate, appeals to various learning styles, and helps young children understand Scripture and their faith more fully! You can access this free catechetical resource by visiting their YouTube Channel here or by searching for “Heidi Witte – Kids’ Liturgy” on YouTube. Their program also airs on CatholicTV each Sunday at 8:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. EST.
