Children's Liturgy of the Word (CLOW)
CLOW is a continuation of the Mass on a child's level beginning with the first reading and proceeding to the offertory. It is especially designed for children 4-7 years old. The children are invited to come forward and follow the adult leader to the Multipurpose room, where they gather during the Liturgy of the Word and listen to and break open the Gospel at their level, September through May. We are looking for adult leaders and teen helpers for the 11:00 a.m. Mass. Contact the Faith Formation Office at 317-466-3365 for more information.
