Te Ritenga o te Kupu a te Ariki, mō ngā tamariki — Liturgy of the Word with Children

A resource page for those who minister in the community by facilitating Children's Liturgy of the Word 

The Liturgy of the Word with Children is...

  • a ritual for the proclamation of God’s Word with Children appropriate to their understanding.
  • a moment of salvation in which the living God communicates life to God’s children and in which they respond with awe, praise, thanksgiving and petition.
  • liturgy, and is not Sunday School. Activity sheets can be useful as take-home material for family follow-up, but they are not appropriate to be used during a liturgical celebration.
  • time to hear God’s Word at an appropriate level.
  • an opportunity to hear the Gospel message and consider how to practice it in life.
