Where Are All the Young Adults?
If you've asked this question at your church, you're not alone. Many churches struggle to attract and retain young adults. Many don't even know where to begin. That's why Pivot NW exists.
5 Things You Can Do Right Now
Elevate young adults to areas of leadership in the congregation (where budget-making decisions occur).
Collect and listen to stories about your church from people of various generations/populations.
Budget for and implement a program for intergenerational relationship building. Include reciprocal mentorship and vulnerability.
Create and support a space for young adults to grow in faith together.
Build a young adult initiative team at your church.
