There are around 13.8 million 18-34 year olds who fall into the category of millennials. The Church Army is releasing guidance on how to evangelise millennials as we face a lack of young people in the pews. Research based on observing twelve different approaches to mission and evangelism around the UK from a variety of church traditions suggests a way forward. 'The findings are really encouraging and suggest that mission with young adults, while challenging, is not as difficult as one might think,' said Dr Tim Ling, the Church Army's director of research. In the churches studied, at least sixty people became Christians, with a further 48 reporting that the church had helped them rediscover a lost faith. The report urged churches to create 'spaces where young adults can belong and feel part of a community before they believe'.
