HOW DO WE GROW THE number of children and young people in our churches?

To find out, earlier this year we talked to over 200 churches who have grown their engagement with under 18s. The result is to pray and PRAY: Prioritise, Resource, Adapt, You.

The PRAY acronym is a way for churches to think about what they can do to welcome children, young people and families into their churches. Find out more in the animation below, which summarises the findings from the Youth and Children Growth Research.
