Participation in all church worship is #1 in sticky faith indicators.
Students teaching children is a huge indicator in sticky faith in teenagers.
Adults showing an interest in students is crucial. HOW DO WE PROGRAM THAT?
I need to do a better job of staying in touch with our college freshmen with a plan, and getting some other adult to adopt them.
* Do a better job of connecting students to church/ministry at colleges.
5 to 1 ratio is important.
* How can I tie into the men’s and women’s ministries better?
* How can we get in front of the staff and the elders with our findings?
* How can we relate these issues to the adults? How can we make their faith stickier?
Prayer post-its: annonymous prayer requests on post it notes, leave yours on the way in, pick up another on the way out.
