Children's Liturgy
The Cathedral has a dedicated Children's Liturgy Team which runs almost every Sunday at the 10am Mass.
Our aim for the children who join us is that they learn about the Word of God and the life of Jesus in a way that it accessible and understandable to them, and that they have the opportunity to ask question and discuss the themes that are presented in the Gospel in a way that will help them to understand their faith.
Each week we read the exact same Gospel that is read during the Mass, using 'The Complete Children's Liturgy Book' by Katie Thompson. We spend time helping the children to think about the message of the Gospel and then we have child friendly activities before we return to the Mass for the Consecration.
All our team members are required to have a DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check completed every three years so you can be rest assured that your children's safety is of upmost importance to us.

Children who are aged from 4 up to 8 who have not received their first Holy Communion are very welcome to join us in the Cathedral Centre.
We do welcome children under 4, but we do insist that children under 4 are accompanied by an adult (parent or guardian preferably). If your child would like to join us then please meet us at the Blessed Sacrament Chapel before the Mass begins. Once the Priest and Altar Servers have venerated the Altar the Priest will hand us our Liturgy book and we process down the aisle of the Church and into the Cathedral Centre. |
