Children are a gift from God and not the property of parents.  Before they are their parents’ children, they are God’s children.  The primary duty of parents is to present to their children the Good News and to communicate the Christian faith to them.

[372, YOUCAT Youth Catechism of the Catholic Church, 2011, Ignatius Press]

On Sunday, the 9 o’clock Mass at St. Joseph Church is a “Children’s Mass.”

During the Liturgy of the Word, there is a special catechesis for children.
