Christ the King Parish offers Little Flowers Girls Club for all girls ages 5 through 18 and their mothers/female guardians. The group is inspired by St. Therese of Lisieux, often called the "Little Flower."
On one Sunday each month, girls and their mothers meet to discuss a different virtue, participate in a craft, and have snack and fellowship together. The format of each meeting is as follows:
2:00 pm - Prayer.
2:05 pm - Introduction of the virtue, saint, & Scripture verse for lesson time.
2:30 pm - Craft/guest speaker.
3:00 pm - Clean up from craft, if necessary.
3:15 pm - Snack time.
3:30 pm - Games, songs, and free time.
4:00 pm - Closing prayer and departure.
These meetings are led entirely by volunteers. Mothers/female guardians take turns teaching, providing crafts, and providing snack at each session. Throughout each month, the girls use their member guides to earn badges by imitating St. Therese's "Little Way"- performing small acts of virtue with great love and spending extra time in Scripture study and prayer.
Through this group, we hope for our daughters to build authentic friendships and grow in virtue by providing them with tools and holy witnesses.
