Small churches in my area especially struggle with keeping and bringing people into their church. This is causing smaller churches to down size and die out, which is obviously a huge problem. They mainly focus on appealing to the older generations which is not necessarily a problem for now, but for future generations this poses a serious problem. Here at Grove City College we really do not have a problem with this because we all came from backgrounds of faith, but for a lot of kids I know and am friends with, I tend to worry about them and their future because they have not found Christ and have not chosen to follow him, and the small churches in my area do not seem to be doing anything about it. I have a background in a smaller public school, and Christianity was obviously never exposed to most of these kids, but I feel that churches should be reaching out to these unchurched children, I was in the same boat as them until one of my friends encouraged me to come with him to church and I feel as if my life has only gotten better since then, and I believe churches should be focusing on creating this same experience for more younger people in Gen Z.
