Book excerpt: Make Easter and Pentecost meaningful for young people. Help them experience the joy and celebration of the Easter season, and cheerfully proclaim, "Alleluia! He is risen!" Bring the Scriptures alive and give young adolescents creative ways to explore, pray, and reflect on the salvation story, so they are able to focus on the profound mystery of God among us. The leader's guide has nine faith sessions, as well as an extended session, to help young people enter fully into the expectation and the joy of the Easter and Pentecost seasons. In addition to its fully developed sessions, this guide has strategies for encouraging real participation in the liturgical and community life of the parish as it ritualizes and celebrates the Easter season.
