Each month, (from September thru June) St. Jude offers a Children's Mass.  This program uses all grades to do simple collections for the We Care program, and  with the 5th & 6th grade Religious Education students who are the Gift Bearers and Readers for the mass  This is a way to involve the children to participate in all areas of the Mass.  Our youth choir also prepares and leads the music for this Mass.  The homily for this Mass is specifically directed to the children who are invited to sit around the altar during the homily.  Children in all grades are able to participate in the Children's Mass through the WE CARE Program.

WE CARE Program
This is a service program sponsored by Children's Ministries to help the young children of the parish understand the Corporal Works of Mercy, and to realize that individually and together we impact the world with our good works.  Each month, the program focuses on a different work in addition to how we help ourselves and others at our church, in our community, in our country, and in the world. Each year we will list the items to be collected at mass and throughout the week.
