Too old for the youth – too young for the seniors. What makes Church attractive for young adults between 20 and 35?

Youth – in our Church this term refers to the age group between 14 and 28. This simple statement already indicates the balancing act required for youth care. On the one hand there are youngsters in the middle of adolescence, on the other hand young adults who to a certain extent already know what life is all about. The result is that there are different expectations in “Youth care” in our Church. The workshop is primarily directed at young Christians in our Church in the age group between 20 and 35. Together with the participants we shall elaborate what offers are expected in the Church environment and how attractive these can be shaped. More information
