I recently started going to my local UU and love it, I left Catholicism 20 years or so because of many disagreements with the church, the UU is a breath of fresh air! Anyway I love the UU but I can't help but notice that our average age is probably pushing high 60s. I don't know how sustainable it is to have such a up there in the years congregation, don't get me wrong I love older people and have always had respect for my elders I just wish we had some younger peoples energy. Does anyone here have any ideas that they have tried to bring new people in? I talked to my pastor and they said that it's been a conversation for a long time but nothing has really been tried. I feel like if more people knew that there was a church that was so accepting as ours we'd be packed and I think it could help with the loneliness epidemic in this country.
