Children & Families
We have a dream that our Children and Families ministry will provide opportunities to connect, create, and cultivate relationships with all children and their families. This ministry will seek to develop a culture of welcome from within the parish community, so that everyone feels they belong however messy, noisy, or lively.
To stay up to date with events and initiatives, along with registrations for these, make sure to check out our Link tree below:
Children's Liturgy
We understand that it can be difficult to get your children to Mass on a Sunday but we strive to make it easier for you by offering Children's Liturgy. Once you deem your child old enough, they are able to join trained, Blue Carded and Police Checked adults, along with other children in the Parish Centre for a child-friendly liturgy of the Word on Sundays 9:30am at Our Lady of the Rosary Parish.
If you are interested in joining this ministry, please contact us - cp********************@**************et.au
Encounter Day & Kingdom Kids Fun Day
Encounter Catholic Kids is a one-day school holiday program for primary-aged children.
Together with Evangelisation Brisbane, we host an Encounter Catholic Kids event, which inspires children with fun playground games and engaging craft activities as part of an immersive play experience designed to give kids the chance to encounter the Catholic faith and lead them to their best friendship yet with Jesus!
Our next Encounter Day will be in 2026. Details to come.
We also hold a Kingdom Kids Fun Day once a year during the September school holidays. The 2025 Date is Thursday 2nd October (time and location tbc).
Kingdom Kids - Monthly Youth Group
Kingdom Kids Youth Group is a new initiative in the parish, aimed at actively accompanying kids in Grades 4-6 to encounter Jesus in their lives.
The group meets once a month on Tuesdays during school terms from 4pm - 5:30pm at Unity College.
These evenings are opportunities to hang out and explore the faith in an accessible way, participate in games and activities, engage with input that helps build understanding of who Jesus is in their lives, and build friendships with likeminded kids in the parish.
Our youth nights are for all students within our Caloundra community, regardless of their faith background and school.
Faith is a journey that isn’t taken alone – we are here to grow with you! If you’re interested in coming along, make sure to register via our Linktree, or email us cp********************@**************et.au
