Ministries For Children

This program is during Mass when the priest invites children (ages 4-9) to go to a separate area for Mass readings and Catholic faith teachings. Volunteers teach and offer assistance during these sessions.
All elementary & middle school children are expected to register for Faith Formation classes or Home Faith beginning in first grade. Although not required, we offer a kindergarten class. (Students enrolled at St Brendan School do not need to register in our Faith Formation program).
St Brendan offers nursery care for children 6 months to four years of age in the Carter Center during the 8:45 and 10:30 AM Sunday Masses. The children will be kept safe and entertained while you enjoy a more peaceful mass.
The nursery is typically closed on the following days/holidays:
If possible, the nursery is open for the Parish Mission and during other special events such as First Communion.
For one summer week, children experience God’s love through energetic music, interesting dramas, creative crafts, fun games and a tasty treat. Approximately two hundred volunteers make it happen!
