YOUTH IN CHRIST OFFERS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR YOUTH AND THEIR PARENTS TO PERSONALLY EXPERIENCE THE GOOD NEWS OF JESUS CHRIST, HIS UNENDING LOVE AND MERCY, AND HIS PERSONAL CALL TO DISCIPLESHIP. OUR UNIQUE APPROACH HAS SEVERAL DIMENSIONS: ANNUAL KICK-OFF: EACH PARISH OR REGION INVOLVED IN YOUTH IN CHRIST WILL HAVE A FUN AND FOCUSED KICK-OFF EVENT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY, AS A CATALYST FOR STRENGTHENING YOUR FAITH. THE GOAL IS TO KEEP THE ENERGETIC, SPIRITUAL MOMENTUM GOING ALL YEAR, EVERY YEAR! MONTHLY MEET-UPS: HOST FAMILIES WILL WELCOME SEVERAL OTHER FAMILIES INTO THEIR HOME 1-2 TIMES PER MONTH, HAVE FELLOWSHIP AND FOOD, AND THEN DIVE INTO THE CONTENT OF THE NIGHT; VIDEO TESTIMONIES FROM CATHOLICS WHO ARE PART OF REAL FAMILIES, JUST LIKE YOURS. MEANT TO BE A RELAXED GATHERING, HOST FAMILIES NEED NOT WORRY ABOUT TEACHING CONTENT OR ANYTHING OTHER THAN ENJOYING THE GOOD NEWS AND SOME GREAT COMPANY. HOT TOPICS: WE PROVIDE WEEKLY DISCUSSION POINTS TO KEEP YOUR FAMILY'S FAITH LIFE GROWING AT HOME. COMMUNICATION IS KEY FOR ANY RELATIONSHIP, AND THESE ONCE-A-WEEK TOPICS ARE EASY TO TACKLE AT THE DINNER TABLE, IN THE CAR, BEFORE BED, OR ANY TIME YOU ARE TOGETHER! SEASONAL SERVICE: WE WILL MAKE SOME SUGGESTIONS, AND YOU PICK THE ONES THAT WORK BEST FOR YOUR FAMILY. EACH FAMILY IS ASKED TO PARTICIPATE TOGETHER IN AT LEAST ONE FORM OF SERVICE, AT LEAST ONCE PER SEASON. RISE UP RALLY: EACH SPRING, YOUTH IN CHRIST PARTNERS WITH THE ARCHDIOCESE OF BALTIMORE TO HOST A DAY-LONG MIDDLE SCHOOL EXPERIENCE OF FUN, FRIENDSHIP, AND FAITH THAT IS NOT TO BE MISSED!
