bit curious why not many young adults attend.  <BR><BR>Do you not know about it?  <br>Maybe this notice will change that.  <BR><BR>Do you think Church history is not important enough?  <br>Maybe considering the importance of contemplating martyrs, Doctors of the Church, and Church teachings will change that.  <BR><BR>Did you think that the Tuesday morning class is at a bad time for you?  <br>Wednesday evening classes are also available.<BR><BR>Do you only want to attend events with that involve socializing?  <br>There is some group sharing.<BR><BR>Do you need to know how to enroll?  <br>It should just cost $40 for the book and you should be able to find out how to sign up by calling the church and asking how to sign up.<BR><BR>Are you frightened about how it will go?  <br>I am signed up and have made it to every session, and I am still here to tell about it.<BR><BR>Is there some other reason?  <BR><BR>Even if you don't want to attend, giving input might help others

question is: What can the Catholic churches do to change that?<BR><BR>One way that should help is by seeking competence, concern, and hospitability in the youth ministers.  How better to keep the youth in the Faith than by having strong, dedicated, inspiring leaders?  Maybe have annual parish elections to such positions with pastor nominees in light of committee recommendations.<BR><BR>What else can we do?  Other comments or opinions?<BR><BR>Maybe by having one or more blogs?  Or should we let facebook handle that alone? <p>Forum: <a
