Outreach to young adults pays off in 2011

 

 

 The United Methodist Church has yearned to bring more young people into its pews and its pulpits, and if events of this year are any indication, it may be happening.
 
The annual report on clergy age trends in the denomination, conducted by the Lewis Center for Church Leadership of Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C., revealed a 10-year high in the number of United Methodist clergy under the age of 35.
 
The church holds numerous events throughout the year to reach young people and build stronger relationships. Events like Youth 2011 and Relevance X are designed for various age groups and stages of faith.

Exploration events, sponsored by the United Methodist Board of Higher Education and Ministry, help young people who feel called to ministry to gain a better understanding of where God is leading them.
