Children & Young People at St Martin de Porres

Mothers and Toddlers

We have not one but two groups for pre-school children- one at each church: these presently meet on Thursdays, but check the Parish Bulletin for day and time.

Just go along and speak to the group leaders

Children’s Liturgy

There is a children’s liturgy most Sundays at English Martyrs and at 11 o’clock Mass at St Austin’s. Children leave the Mass at the beginning & have their own liturgy nearby, returning to tell us & show us what they have done, at the Offertory. We are always looking for more helpers- see the group leaders- and a parent should in any event go with the children, especially tots. It isn’t a creche!
