An Edge Issue Night on Family

Summary

The Edge Night begins with a Gather of games focused on building community and allowing the youth to get to know one another. The Proclaim discusses what it means to be a child of God and explores how the youth are a part of the family of God and the Church. The Break gives the youth an opportunity to create an Edge family tree as well as to discuss the importance of the community they have in the Church. The Edge Night ends with the Send giving the youth an opportunity to pray together and for one another.

Goal of This Night

The goal of this Edge Night is for the youth to come to a greater understanding of what it means to be a child of God, particularly that they are a part of a larger community and family, the Church, that will journey with them throughout their lives.

Catechism

Scripture

Key Concepts

– Everyone is born into a family and every family looks different and has their own struggles, but we are called to love them anyway.

– God knows that we cannot live lives of faith alone so, in addition to our families at home, He brings us into the greater family of the Church through our baptism .

– God calls us to love our friends and our families and to lay down our lives for them in service and self sacrifice
