An Edge Night on the First Commandment

About This Night

The Edge Night begins with a Gather game where the youth have to choose their dream team to complete a certain task. The Proclaim explains to the youth that they are God’s chosen people and how they are called to live out the first commandment. The Break gives the youth a chance to reflect on a Scripture passage and the things that they put above God in their lives. During the Send the youth learn about blessings and have an opportunity to bless themselves with holy water.

Goal of This Night

The goal for this Edge Night is for the youth to understand that the first commandment is an invitation from God for them to be in a relationship with Him. He has chosen them, and they are called to respond to that invitation.

Catechism

Scripture

Key Concepts

– The first commandment summons humankind to believe in God, to hope in Him, and to love Him above all else. (CCC 2134)

– We are called to respond to God’s invitation in how we adore, pray, sacrifice, and make promises to Him.

– We were created to worship, so if we do not respond to God we will worship something or someone else.
