Living the Works of Mercy by Ellen P. Cavanaugh Pdf
Living the Works of Mercy: Daring Teens to Change the World can be used by teachers, coordinators of youth ministry, directors of religious education, catechists, teen mentors -- anyone who works with young people in junior and senior high school. It contains fourteen sessions, each of which engages teens thoughtfully, actively, and prayerfully in one of the works of mercy, in a variety of ways. The book also contains two retreats. "Jesus in Disguise" is an overnight retreat on the corporal works of mercy, and is designed for younger teens. "Christ Looks on Us with Love" is a weekend retreat on the spiritual works of mercy, especially created for older teens. Living the Works of Mercy: Daring Teens to Change the World is a resource that helps adults facilitate for teens the dialogue between profound human experiences and the revealed word of God. It is a resource that enables teens to understand the relevance of God's word in their life, and ultimately dares them to translate this sacred dialogue into action that will change the world.
