Volunteers needed - Children's Liturgy

“Whoever welcomes a child in my name, welcomes me” Matthew 18:5

Can you help children to feel more welcome at Mass and able to take part? Could you help us deliver the Liturgy of the Word to the children at St Joseph's Church? Children's liturgy is aimed at proclaiming the Scriptures to young people in a way that is suited to their age and ability. It is a way to help them understand by using language and symbols relating to their childhood experience. Leaders of Children’s Liturgy of the Word have a great privilege and responsibility. They help break open the words of the Gospel for the children, enabling them to hear God’s Word. If you are interested in joining the team at St. Joseph's, or would like to find out more about it, we would love to hear from you - please contact Catherine Taylor at catmarytaylor@gmail.com or 0771 919 3401. Please note - those involved in this ministry must adhere to the Diocesan Safeguarding requirements and go through the Disclosure and Barring procedures.
