Celebrant: Fr. Bernd Günther SJ.
The following dates for the first half of 2026 are: 19 April, 17 May and 21 June.
The Mass is especially for children aged 0 to 6, who remain on the large carpet in front of the altar, surrounded by their parents.
The service is adapted for children, including the hymns, homily and liturgy, to involve them as much as possible, and lasts 45 minutes (60 minutes including arrival and return of the rugs).
Afterwards, families gather for a light snack.
Breastfeeding is welcome, nappy changing is possible, and there are toilets and a lift for pushchairs in the chapel.
Families of other Christian denominations are welcome, in keeping with the Chapel’s ecumenical spirit (the celebration follows the Catholic liturgy).
Parents are invited to join the team of organizing parents, either regularly or occasionally, with:
– music during Mass (guitar, piano, singing or other)
– activities/entertainment based on the Sunday Gospel (colouring, collage, other)
– fruit/healthy snacks after Mass
