Group Activities For Catholic Youth
Being an adolescent is not easy. This is the time when you experience a
lot of pressure from people around you. You begin to explore things you
hardly know about and you often drift away from your family. If you
don't like what's happening and you feel that there is a need to change
your ways, then you should be involved in Catholic youth group
activities. Well of course, you have to be a Catholic so that there
will be no conflicts with regards to faith and beliefs. But anyway,
Catholic youth groups are open to all teenagers who want to be nearer
to Jesus Christ and His righteous ways. So why choose to become a
member of a Catholic youth group now? Perhaps you're already aware that
the world is filled with a lot of temptations; temptations that can
wreck your life forever. If you don't want to end up like all the
others, you must choose a youth group now. That way, you will grow with
faith in the Lord through the various experiences that will soon come
your way. As a member of a Catholic youth group, you will be able to
experience Jesus Christ in strangers and friends. Through acts of
charity and social justice, you can experience the The Holy Spirit. The
youth group will also conduct scripture reflections, liturgy, prayers,
and retreats so that all the members can experience God. The Catholic
youth groups all over the world have the same purpose and that is to
offer all the youths a fun and safe Christian environment. You will be
able to see your friends on a particular schedule every week. The
mission of all the youth groups is to energize the parish youths in
faith though various social activities, discussion topics, scripture
reflection, outreach, service, and other church-related actions. As
mentioned earlier, everyone is invited as long as you're a
teenager.There is a Catholic youth group for every parish; however, if
you are not from the parish or you're from another denomination, you're
still welcome. The youth activities usually vary every month but most
youth groups follow a basic structure which includes the following
opening prayer, scripture reflection, activity, open forum, and the
closing prayer. During the school year, the youth group usually meets
once every month and during special events or activities. Aside from
the church-related events, the youth group can even go scavenger
hunting, Lenten seder, and movie night outs. So you see, its not just
about learning about God and Christ, but it is also about having fun as
a teen. The big difference though is that you will be far from worldly
temptations like alcohol, drugs, and many others. You will be
surrounded with other teens who are responsible, disciplined, and
religious. The youth group has an activity coordinator and if ever your
group wants to suggest a certain new activity, you can easily contact
the authorized person. So you see, being a member of a catholic youth
group is fun and exciting. You will learn a lot every time the group
meets. You can now consider the youth group as your new peer group.
Now, your parents will not worry every time you go out because they are
sure that you're with good company.
