The Melbourne Archdiocese has produced the above video as a unique offering, which may be a source of inspiration and enjoyment for families, in assisting them to come together to pray.
The Ready, Set, Pray! Children’s Liturgy of the Word @ Home video series provides an engaging space for families to encounter Jesus through the Sunday gospel. Each week, families are invited to create and gather in their own prayer space, to sing, hear the Gospel, pray and respond creatively through an activity.
This weekly resource follows the familiar Children’s Liturgy of the Word format provided in many parishes – in an online setting. Each weekly session runs for 15–20 minutes.
The series commenced on Sunday, 18 October and will continue each Sunday until Christmas. We hope this experience of gathering for prayer will encourage families at a time when you cannot gather for parish celebrations of the Eucharist. The series is produced by Proclaim: The Office for Mission Renewal.
