I had the awesome priviledge to be part of the first of three 2 day, 1 night retreats for the Junior Class from St. Edward High School from Elgin, Il. The teens from St. Ed's were AWESOME. What a joy it was to work with such a nice group of young people.

Mr. Zak Wanna Be???

ROCKED BY GOD? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

2006-09-01T20:59:00.000-05:00

Have you ever wanted to make a change in your life?
No just a little change but a change that would shake up your world?

Remember the Rich Young Man? He wanted to make a change.

But then Jesus asked him to sell everything that he had and then come follow Him

He couldn't do it...

Can you imagine what would have happened if he had?

If we want to be Rocked by God we have to be willing to...

Listen to Him...

Do as He says..

Follow Him...

Problem is, that is easier said then done. The Rocked by God retreats expose young people to Jesus in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, The Presence of Christ in a Eucharistic Holy Hour and in the Mass. By providing them with avenues to God's grace we allow our young people to experience Jesus is all of His Glory.

We put them in the path of Jesus so they can be

ROCKED BY GOD

THEY WERE ROCKING WITH SAL SOLO

St. Charles IL
It was extremely sweaty in the gym as we arrived on the first night of a Junior High Retreat, which unusually, had a fairly decent turnout for a voluntary event. They were having games and songs as we set up and their youth minister Mike Zak definitely seems to be good at his job. We heard many of them had been on a summer camp together, so they already knew their faith can be fun.
They were well in the mood when it was time for our Evang-a-Ganza and knew the actions to many of the songs. They participated in various games and skits in between with great enthusiasm. There was a youth minister there from Algonquin, where we had been several years ago for a big youth rally. She said she was not able to enjoy it then because of so many details to attend to, so this was her first time to really appreciate the ministry. She also commented that for some of the younger ones this might have been their first real dynamic faith encounter, that they will always remember.

A group of High School peer leaders helped with the kids and also assisted Paul Bauer in the hot and hard work of setting up all the sound equipment and lights (He took the photos). I can't help but recall that Jesus said what you do for the least, you do for me.
