Leading Up To Advent

Though it's nearing the end of the year, we are gearing up for all sorts of action around here. Movie Night, Lock-In, Rally Team, LA Youth Day, Jr. High Rally, and all sorts of other stuff. To help ease the madness of the season, we'll be posting through the Advent season with all sorts of interesting things.

Tonight, at High School Youth Group, we talked about music, how different things speak to us at different times in our lives, and we examined the Nine Inch Nails song, "Hurt." We checked-in with our own personal reflections and then watched the Johnny Cash version via YouTube. Everyone seemed to really connect with that version- it goes to show you how well visuals and real history can work toward conveying a message.

Check out the video below and examine your reaction. Share it with someone. What strikes you most? (This takes you to the website where the video is posted. 30sec. commercial alert)



We're collecting all sorts of Catholic and "things you wanted to know but were afraid to ask a priest" questions for next week. Last day to submit questions is this Friday.
