Weekday Liturgies for Children: Creative Ways to Celebrate Year-round

By making Masses meaningful to young hearts and minds, Sister Kathleen says we follow Jesus’ request to “Let the children come to me” (Luke 18:16).

This all-inclusive resource for children’s weekday liturgies contains everything you need to plan children’s liturgies for practically any day of the year. Newly revised and updated, it covers hundreds of themes, solemnities, and saint days. Each liturgy includes child-friendly music suggestions, engaging homily ideas, general intercessions, a lively introduction to draw children in, and liturgically appropriate suggestions for making the celebration memorable.

Here's what people are saying about this book:

Our original Weekday Liturgies for Children book was lost. When I showed our teachers that we now have a copy of the revised edition, they were so excited I wished I had a videocamera. Sr Domicele Yestonsky, SND Grade 4 Teacher, St. Thomas Aquinas School, Cleveland, OH

I like the book because it is easy to follow and the language is simple so children can read and relate to the liturgies. Shari Wynn First Grade Teacher, St. Thomas Aquinas School, Cleveland, OH

The Weekday Liturgies with Children book has helped me plan wonderful masses with my middle school students. The book puts the Gospel into kid-friendly language that allows them to understand and reflect upon God's word. The readings are easy for the students to read aloud without frustration or confusion. I would recommend this book to any religion teacher. Maria Clements, Middle School Teacher, St. Thomas Aquinas School, Cleveland, OH
