Jesus gave us an amazing gift by establishing the Church. During this semester we are going to help the youth understand the Church and its importance. We will be showing them throughout the semester how and why Jesus established the Church. We will present the various aspects of the Church and show the presence of the Holy Spirit in leading and guiding our Church.
Your youth was a given a handout with the following things to remember from the session...
· Jesus established the Church as the way to heaven
· The Church gives us all the things we need to make it to heaven and to grow in holiness
· The rules in the Church are meant to help us not to get hurt along the way and to keep us from getting lost
· The Church is a community so that we can all work together to get to heaven
· This week, share why you love the Church with one of your friends
Here are some questions to help start a conversation.
· How is the Church a gift to us?
· What would the faith be like if we didn’t have a Church?
· What do you like about being Catholic?
In Him,
The Edge Core Team

We need our youth and families to help volunteer to pass out baby bottles for Pregnancy Center East at all next weekend’s Masses (January 11th and 12th) and to help collect them the weekend of January 18th and 19th. If you’re able to help pass out and collect, please let Nathan Eten know and he’ll follow up with you.
