What is Bang the Bucket?

Bang the Bucket is a game that we play at all of our retreats. It is a very simple game that involves a bucket (in most cases actually a large pot or kettle) and a ladle.

Played with a lot of people, everyone gets into a large area in a big group. The leader has the bucket and the ladle, and hits the bucket a number of times. The people in the group have to separate into small groups of that number. Any people left over are out.

The game is played until two winners are left.

What is Antioch?

The Acts of the Apostles report, “It was at Antioch that the believers were first called Christians.” During the early church times, the community at Antioch was recognized as a particularly faithful, vibrant, loving, prayerful people of God.

Are we known as a Christian people at school, at home or in our neighborhood? Do we allow our faith in God to affect the way we are and act? Are we more loving, faithful, caring, honest and joyful because of our faith?

We are challenged as young people of the Church to accept the Love of God.
