Mainline denominations, including my own Episcopal Church, are declining in both membership and relevance in the United States today, and the Church now faces a stark choice: proactively reach out to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to young adults and show the Gospel of God already-at-work in the world in their lives or preside over a truly dying Church. This thesis suggests several approaches to equipping and empowering young adults to have confidence in their own faith narratives, and then to share those stories with others. Over a period of four months, this thesis project engaged young adults in a workshop, retreat, and diocesan gathering to focus on evangelism with and through young adults, the possibilities for intergenerational transformation, and the role of Washington National Cathedral as a diocesan resource and convener for young adult ministry.
