Welcoming Our Littlest Catholics

Given the way that my chair faces at both of our churches one of the things I get to see is that little children don’t like to sit still. Or be quiet. Which is fine by me. They’re kids! And I can outshout the best of them if I have to. But that doesn’t mean that the parents of small children feel that it’s fine. Or that churches are particularly easy places to be with kids. But they could be easier. Our staff got to talking about that over lunch this week, based on an article that was in U.S. Catholic about our littlest Catholics.
