The Great Emptiness

Jesus Redeems - Session Two

About This Session

The Gather is a fun game that creatively introduces original sin and the fruit that was not to be eaten. The Proclaim discusses the incarnation and how Jesus enters the chaos of fallen humanity to redeem us from the emptiness of sin. The Break is an Examination of Conscience in a desolate location. In the Send, the priest invites teens to receive healing in the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

Goal of This Night

To discuss the emptiness that comes from sin and to proclaim that Jesus Christ comes to redeem us through the cross, which we concretely experience through the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
