Life In The Vine

The Gifts and Fruits of the Holy Spirit

About This Life Night

This Life Night begins with a fun and interactive Gather game modeled after the popular phone app, Fruit Ninja. The Proclaim defines and explains the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit and discusses our call to a life in the vine of Christ. The Break gives teens an opportunity to apply what they learned in the Proclaim by calling out which gift and/or fruit of the Holy Spirit a character in a TV show or movie is displaying or lacking. The Life Night ends with the opportunity for the teens to go to the Sacrament of Reconciliation and consider which gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit they need the most at this present moment.

Goal of This Night

The goal of this Life Night is to explain the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit and invite the teens to abide in Christ and the life of the Holy Spirit.

Scripture

Key Concepts

– The prophet Isaiah listed seven gifts that would belong to Jesus, which are now shared with Jesus’s people; wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety, and the fear of the Lord.

– Those who live by the Spirit produce the fruits of the Spirit. The tradition of the Church and St. Paul in Galatians lists twelve: charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control, and chastity.

– The more we renounce ourselves and abide in Christ, the more we live by the Spirit and bear fruit.
