This night will help the youth to realize the importance of the decisions we make today and the importance they bear on our final judgment. The night is meant to draw youth in repentance and help them realize that they make choices every day to draw nearer or further from Christ. Our Catholic tradition teaches us that there are two types of judgment at the end of our lives: particular, or immediate, judgment and final, or universal, judgment. When we die, we will face our particular (immediate) judgment – we receive from God what we deserve according to our faith and works during our lives. At this point there are three different options for each human soul based on how he/she has used his/her free will (heaven, hell, or purgatory). Our final (universal) judgment is when our bodies will be resurrected and join our souls. The bodies will share in either the happiness and joy of heaven or the misery and hatred of hell. This is the time of the return of Christ. The natural world will pass away and a new heaven and a new earth will come forth. At this time, Jesus will judge the living and the dead.
