My
Church, Our Home
Session
I: Introduction
Program
Goal: The children, pre-teens, teens and young adults attending the
sessions of the All American Council, 2002, will be given the opportunity to
think about, explore, and develop their relationship with Jesus Christ and understand
their parish as their experience of “heaven on earth, and path to salvation.”
Session
I: Introduction
- Begin with introductions
of the staff. Everyone will have a nametag.
- Give an overview
of the week. Introduce the titles of the sessions, The Household of God, Our
Life in Christ, Our Path to Salvation and In Deed in Truth.
- Play icebreaker
games- Bath Tissue Game, M&M Game, Bingo Game. We will play one or more
depending on the time remaining.
- We will discuss
the outings for the week. We will discuss the rules and regulations for expectations
on the outings. * This will occur before each session, as each outing will
be different. Place participants and chaperones together with colored bracelets.
Give any pertinent material to all chaperones assisting on the trips.
- If time allows,
each participant will receive their copy of their journal. They will prepare
them by decorating the cover to reflect the theme for the week. They will
be sure to write their name on the journal, and then turn it in to their “teacher
for the week”.
