Life Nights
Life Nights follow a four part structure and seek to help the teens both internalize the faith on a personal level and grow in genuine Christian friendships with one another.
Each Life Night begins with a "Gather" which is a fun activity to break the ice
|
The "Gather" leads to a time of teaching where a topic dealing with the faith is "proclaimed"
|
The "Break" gives the teens time in small groups to unpack what they heard during the "Proclaim"
|
The "Send" is when the evening comes to a close with a time to further internalize the teaching, often in a time of prayer
