Mass Kit for Children

Mass Kit for Children

Today, the boys turned our basement into a church. They had an altar, chairs for pews and a pulpit all set up. Joseph wore his red robe to offer mass because he was pretending to be a bishop. At the link above, you can purchase a Mass kit for children. They also have patterns for child-size vestments and a child-size monstrance! GREAT stuff.

Here's what the website lists as the contents in the kit:

I found your blog on the Catholic Mother's blogroll. Thanks for the post about the children's mass kit. My husband is the cordinator of religious education at our parish and this kit would be fantastic for our PSR program! Especially to be used with 2nd graders that are preparing for 1st Communion! So, I just wanted to say thank you for sharing this link and God bless you and your family! ~Kari
