Jessica Coblentz shares tips for planning your young adult ministry outreach strategy:

Things to consider when planning your strategy:

  • Who are the young adults in your parish community?
  • Who are the young adults outside your parish community that might be interested in what you are doing?
  • For both groups think about age range as well as ethnicity, socio-economic status, relationship status.
  • Which of these sub-groups will you target with your outreach?
  • What do you think are the best ways to reach this group?

You’ll find other tips for promotion and outreach in the Essentials section of Young Adult Ministry in a Box.
