Faith That is Known and Lived: A Conference on Campus Ministry and Its Future

Faith That is Known and Lived: A Conference on Campus Ministry and Its Future

2007, 44 pages, $14.95

Catholics are attending colleges and universities in numbers that far exceed their percentage of the general population. Each year nearly forty percent of the three million freshmen enrolling in the nation’s 4,100 degree-granting institutions identify themselves as Catholic. How is their religious community present to them during the formative years of college? These proceedings reflect leading campus ministry programs in the country including Arizona State, Yale, Michigan, Stanford, and Northwestern among others. An exciting and well-funded ministry is becoming more of an influence in the lives of young Catholics and is increasingly a powerhouse of Catholic intellectual ferment.

Young Adult Catholics: Religion in the Culture of Choice

Young Adult Catholics: Religion in the Culture of Choice

2002, 44 pages, $19.00

U.S. Catholicism is young. Forty percent of the adult Catholic population are in their 20s and 30s. Despite sizeable numbers, young adults generally have a tenuous connection with their Catholicism. About eight percent of the large population, for example, is in church every Sunday. Most young adult Catholics like being Catholic but still lack connections with their parishes and their church’s sacramental life. A brilliant study on young adult American Catholics conducted by a four-member research team serves as the basis of this FADICA exchange. The conversation provides timely insights into what works and does not work in pastoral outreach to the young adult population.
