Why we lose our UU children
Steve Caldwell at Faithworks has an excellent piece on why UU children don't stay in the congregation.One reason for losing youth members after high school graduation is the perception that our congregations cater to those who are older adult converts. We rarely attempt to provide a worship experience with youth or young adults as part of our religious community. Or if we do offer this experience, we expect youth and young adults to conform to older adult worship norms ... we're not even attempting to meet them half-way.He goes on to reference a number of other articles on the subject. Definitely worth reading.
