Kids Church – 7th Sunday of Easter
A welcome everyone to Kids Church. It has been an exciting two weeks with all of the First Communicants. The parish now has all these new friends who can now receive communion instead of a blessing. Please keep them all in your prayers.
This week Jesus is praying to the Father for us so that we will be one with the Father just like him. Take time to pray about that this week. We would be so close to the Father that we would be one.

Kids Church – 6th Sunday of Easter
Hello everyone and welcome to Kids Church on the 6th Sunday of Easter. Yes, we are still talking about Easter. It is so wonderful that Jesus rose from the dead, the church rejoices in this week after week.
When you hear the Gospel on Sunday, there is an important message about peace and only the peace that God can give. Can you bring peace to your family next week and your school. Let’s try to do that every day. Let’s pray every day and sing a little too, especially all those who have made their First Communion.
Dance , sing and take some quiet time to think about how you can bring peace.
