LITTLE LITURGIES
Our Little Liturgies are a beautiful way for younger children to take their first steps into friendship with Jesus
We passionately believe that a child’s first few years at school are critically important in their faith formation. The Little Liturgies introduce children to the person of Jesus and help them enjoy their relationship with him. Every week we share the Gospel and then use questions of wonder and beautifully rich symbols to help children to enter into prayer. We always conclude in song, showing Jesus how much we love him as we sing.
Little Liturgies
Ep20: Presentation of the Lord
In this Little Liturgy, we celebrate the Presentation of the Lord and learn that Jesus is the Light of the world, given for all people. Jesus invites you to look for his light each day and to hold him close in your heart. Together, we meet Jesus in quiet prayer and then join Angel to sing the hymn ‘Sing Aloud.’
Ep19: JESUS SAYS Follow Me!
In this Little Liturgy, we hear how Jesus calls the fishermen to put down their nets and follow him! We first meet Jesus as he looks for his first followers. He chooses Simon-Peter, Andrew, James and John... but also you. Jesus invites you to follow him each day. We share ways that we can show we follow Jesus and then we meet him in prayer. We then join Sr Chiara to sing one of our favourite hymns: Follow Me, Follow Me!
Ep18: Behold jesus the lamb of God
In this Little Liturgy, we meet St John the Baptist as he sees Jesus walking towards him. He says “Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” He is pointing people towards Jesus. Together, we reflect upon how we can point people to Jesus and also how he is always moving towards us. We then meet with Jesus in prayer and sing a new hymn called ‘Holy Forever’ with Sr Chiara.
Ep17: the Baptism of Jesus
We are celebrating the Baptism of Jesus together. In the Gospel, we hear how Jesus went to the River Jordan to find his cousin John. John lowered Jesus into the river and when he came up something amazing happened! We help children to pray about this moment and understand more about what the Sacrament of Baptism is. As always, we share quiet prayer time together and then sing a hymn. This week it’s ‘God’s Spirit is in my heart.’
Ep16: the Epiphany
We are celebrating the arrival of the wise men in Bethlehem. This moment is called the Epiphany. As we listen to the Gospel story of the wise men following a star and discovering Jesus. We too can move close to Jesus in our hearts. We can lay before him the greatest gift; our love. After we have contemplated the Gospel and met Jesus in prayer we sing the hymn ‘We Three Kings.’
