2019 NCYC Audio - 100 Main Mega Parent & Breakouts • 57m
What do parishes that intentionally engage their young people have in common? What can we learn from their experience? These are the questions that were asked in a qualitative study led by a team at the Fuller Youth Institute (FYI). By sifting through over ten thousand pages of survey, interview, and inperson visit transcripts, the people at FYI have identified six key strategies any parish can use to better involve and retain young people. Explore the study findings and implications for Catholic parishes and apply them to the life of your faith community.
