On August 23, more than 45 people are gathered at the Diocesan Pastoral Center to learn about the Liturgy of the Word for Children. We are delved into Liturgical Catechesis, encountering Christ in Mass! Diocesan Director of Liturgy and Spirituality, Noreen Madden McInnes, modeled a Children’s Dismissal and how this precious time spent with our little ones should be carried out.

In the afternoon, we learned how to prepare the liturgy of the word for children with Claudia Drachenberg. This workshop offered ideas on how to invite children to have full and active participation in Eucharistic Liturgy.
