Generational roadblocks

A Hartford study came out and the news is not pretty.
- From
2000 to 2005 the average percentage of participants over 60 years old increased. - Over
the same time period the average percentage of participants 18-34
decreased. - From 2008 to 2010 the
average percentage of participants over 65 increased slightly. - From 2008 to 2010 the average
percentage of 18-34 year olds continued to decline. - A
third or more of the membership in over half (52.7%) of Oldline Protestant
congregations consists of seniors (65 years old or older). - Seventy-five
percent of Oldline Protestant congregations said that less than 10% of their
regular participants were young adults (18-34 years old).
