St. Brendan Voyagers & Under 5 Group

The Voyagers Program is Saint Brendan’s high-energy faith enrichment program on Sunday mornings during the 9:30 a.m. Mass for children 3 years old through kindergarten.

The Under 5 Group is a fellowship group for families with children...under 5...with fun events like park playdates, holiday theme parties and the legendary St. Brendan's Under-5 Easter Egg Hunt! 
Unfortunately, the in-person Voyagers program and Under-5 events have been on hold during the Covid-19 Pandemic. We know our youngest parishioners have missed the Voyagers and Under-5 programs! It's not the same without our little ones jumping for joy for Jesus! ​
While we try to wait patiently to be back together, consider signing up for the weekly Voyagers email! Each email presents crafts, songs, and ideas for family faith building in the context of the weekly readings. Email Mrs. Stephanie Stanko, Coordinator of Children's Faith Formation, to add your name to the list! stephanie@stbrendanparish.org

Also While We are Waiting....

We need YOUR help to restart the Voyagers program and Under-5 Ministry! 

As we look ahead to returning to our new normal, we want to start planning how to restart the Sunday Voyagers program and the Under-5 ministry - and we need your help! 

Voyagers

St. Brendan's is looking for volunteer catechists to help us plan and implement the next iteration of the Voyagers program. Voyagers catechists don't need any particular training, just a willingness to say "yes" to sharing faith with children ages 3-KInder. You'll be working with Children's Faith Formation Coordinator to develop and present a fun, faith-filled and safe "little church" during the 9:30 a.m. mass - whenever we can return!  

We'll also need Sunday volunteers - of any age! High school to grandparents - just a willingness to share your love of the Catholic faith with our precious little ones. 

Under 5 Ministry 

The Under-5 ministry is a wonderful opportunity to get to know other parish families with young children in fun, social and sometimes slightly chaotic family events. 

The parish is in need of 2-3 families to co-lead this ministry and to start planning for the future. There are many former parent-leaders who can lend a hand and help get you started. 

Wouldn't it be great to visit Santa again in the Parish Hall?
We hope you'll consider giving of your time and talent to serve our parish! If you are interested in saying "yes" or simply asking for more information, please click here. 

Thank you!
