LifeTeen Playlist for eXaLT nights

One of the things that we do in LifeTeen a few times a year is have what is called "XLT". This has nothing to do with the size of your tshirt, it comes from the word eXaLT. Think of it as Eucharistic Adoration, prayer, devotion and praise and worship for the Lord with that LifeTeen touch. Anyhow, I thought that I would make a playlist for one of those nights for my ministry kids to have for their iPods so they could have that music wherever. The song order as it appears below is to guide the listener through a night at XLT from start to finish. So, without any further fanfare- here it is

LifeTeen

Not long ago, I felt the need to get involved in some kind of ministry, to follow in the footsteps of St. Francis. So, for the past year, I've involved with the LifeTeen ministry at my local parish. Ministering to and serving these teens has been an immense honor and they are my joy. I didn't go to school for this and I haven't received any advanced theology training, but I'm a minister just the same. God doesn't call the equipped, He equips the called. LifeTeen is certainly something special. For those of us old enough to remember Catholic Youth Organization, LifeTeen is kind of like that. We gather together as a community every Sunday and kick the evening off with a Mass. After Mass, we have a meal together. Most nights, we have a Catechism night, other nights we have a talk about issues facing Christian youth today. Some think it's like CYO, but it's something much better. I kinda wish we had something like LifeTeen when I was in high school. The kids that come to LifeTeen every week come because they WANT to. They are faith-filled, faithful and it is encouraging to see teens on fire for the Lord as true disciples.
