Magnanimous

Retreat Session Three on the Call to Greatness

Summary

The Gather introduces the youth to newly canonized young St. José Sanchez del Rio. The Proclaim exhorts the youth to answer the call to greatness early and often. During the Break, the youth do a journaling activity to set and keep goals. In the Send, the youth are commissioned by their priest with the words the Lord spoke to the young prophet Jeremiah.

Goal of This Night

The goal of this session is for the youth to learn that the desires they have to do great things, rather than to settle, is a call from Christ. They should be encouraged to act upon this call and desire now, rather than waiting until they are older.

Catechism

Scripture

Key Concepts

– Christ calls us to go out into the world and change it for the better, which includes first and foremost bringing the world closer to Him.

– Settling for the status quo and “just good enough” is not the call of Christ.

– The more open we are to Christ working in us, the more clearly we will see the great things we are meant to achieve, both in small and in large matters.
