    7:00 PM | St. Bartholomew

    At the Mass, we will offer up your prayer intentions. Please fill out a slip of paper (found at the end of the pews) with your intention(s). Consider intentions that are inspired by the life that Mary led: one of kindness, humility, and service. Some examples: for peace, for an increase in devotion to the rosary, for an increase in kindness and service to others, for more participation in our St. Vincent de Paul Conferences or taking communion to the homebound, etc.). Slips of paper will be available starting next weekend, October 24.

Children’s Liturgy of the Word

Sunday, 9:30 AM Mass at St. Clare Church
Sunday, 11:15 AM Mass at St. Bartholomew

Children’s Liturgy of the Word (CLOW) takes place during the Mass and is designed to help young children participate at a level they can understand.

Prior to the first reading, the priest will call the CLOW leaders and children to gather before the altar. After blessing them, the priest presents the children’s lectionary to the leader. Leaders and children then process to the Undercroft (St. Clare) or the Upper Rooms (St. Bartholomew).

The leader opens with a prayer, and leads the Liturgy of the Word for the Children. Children sit for the first and second readings, and stand for the Gospel. The Mass readings of that Sunday are proclaimed using simplified language suited for young children.

Following the Gospel reading, all will sit and talk about what they heard. The leader will give examples of how Jesus’ teaching applies to their young lives, and the children are invited to share their ideas and examples.

The Universal Prayers are said by simply asking the children what they would like to pray for. Frequently the children pray for their families (both living and deceased), pets, and friends. Whatever is on their minds is turned over to Jesus. The leaders and children return to church during the offertory song to join the congregation for the Liturgy of the Eucharist.

Be assured that all adults involved with CLOW are current on their Archdiocese of Cincinnati’s SafeParish trainings and background checks. CLOW is a teaching tool of the Church, and we would cherish the opportunity to help your children grow in faith!
