  • Every child will receive a bell and will be asked to ring the bells during the Eucharist prayer, with instructions given in the mass leaflet.
  • Collections are also performed together with children who will be encouraged to assist just before mass starts.
  • According to the season, there may be additional activities assigned for children participation at mass.

Tea, coffee and cookies
Everyone attending mass are welcome to spend a few minutes with the community over a cup of tea/coffee after mass each week. Tea and coffee will be served at the back of the church on your way out, after each international mass service.
