CHILDREN'S FAITH FORMATION (NON-SACRAMENT PREPARATION)
Children's Liturgy of the Word (CLOW)
This joyful ministry enables children ages 5-10 to experience all that their parents are experiencing at Mass, but at a level especially adapted for children. Children's Liturgy meets Fall-Spring at the Sunday 10:30am Mass. Children begin Mass with their family in the Church and are dismissed after the Gloria, meeting for the Liturgy of the Word in the John Paul II Center and return after the Prayers of the Faithful. This program helps children gain a greater enthusiasm and understanding of Mass.
Joseph's Juniors
On the fourth Saturday of each month from 9am-12pm, children will learn more about our Bible, saints, devotions, and have a special Mass with lots of fun, activities, and fellowship in between. This is an enrichment and fellowship opportunity for your children so that they can grow like Jesus!
Vacation Bible Retreat
Every summer St. Joseph’s offers Vacation Bible Retreat - a faith based retreat for children in grades K-6 where learning and growing in the faith is presented and encouraged through activities, lessons, and by example in a fun atmosphere.
