If you couldn't make it to our youth night last Friday, we missed you! Hopefully we will see you this Friday, Oct 30th at 6 pm at SJES Learning Center. Don't miss out again! Our theme for the night will be New ONE. See you then!

You don’t want to miss our youth nights anymore. Last Friday, our theme of the night was Negative 1 which means sin and death. We reflected with our teens on how by committing venial sins, we harm our relationship with God, and how mortal sins kill that relationship not only with God, but with others, and with creation.
It was a dark night, but the light is coming with the life of grace Jesus offers to us...
Death does not have the last word. Sin doesn’t define us. Jesus does!

Living the greatest commandment begins when we move beyond religious routine to an authentic encounter with God's love.

Sharing the faith with others starts not with catechism lessons, but with the personal story of encountering God's love. Loving God with all our heart means moving beyond devotions done for convenience, good feelings, or fear of punishment, choosing instead to love Him for His own sake and to love our neighbor through concrete service. Ultimately, the most challenging act of love is often not giving God something of our own, but opening our hands to let Him love and transform us.

Readings: Exodus 22:20-26 · Psalm 18:2-3, 3-4, 47, 51 · 1 Thessalonians 1:5c-10 · Matthew 22:34-40
