Children's Liturgy of the Word

Every other Sunday during the 11:00 AM Mass, the children in the congregation are called forth to hear the Word of God in language they can understand.  Here at Saint Sebastian Parish this program began in November of 1994.  Back then, the program took place every Sunday and there were four different teams that shared the Word of God with our young parishioners.  However, with changes in the Mass schedule and volunteers retiring or moving on, the program has declined.

The purpose of Liturgy of the Word for Children (LWC) is to lead the children into a deeper relationship with God through reflection on the Word.  It is part of the Eucharistic Liturgy that takes place in our Parish Center.  A variety of ministries are necessary for this program, including leader, reader, musician.  Volunteers are needed for this program to continue to be a viable part of our parish!  For more information about Children's Liturgy of the Word, please contact the Faith Formation Office at 724.930.8504 or smartin@dioceseofgreensburg.org.
