The results? Almost all of them had left the Faith! Fritz learned that other parishes reported similar staggering losses, pointing to a grim truth: today's youth ministries simply do not form young people into lifelong disciples of Jesus Christ. Not satisfied with these dismal results, Fritz devised a different way of forming young people in the Faith. It's an approach that can truly transform the spiritual lives of young people by applying the same one-to-one method that Jesus Himself used to form His twelve original disciples ... only one of whom was lost! Fritz has worked with countless parishes, helping them make the shift to a small-group discipleship structure. You'll learn to avoid the many pitfalls and common mistakes parishes make, as well as ways you can easily build the volunteer based needed for a successful transition. Fritz will help you create a comfortable environment that leads young people into self-reflection and see the critical role parents and the parish community play in youth formation. Finally, Fritz shares various resources that can help you accomplish your goal, but here he offers his best advice: relationships and mentoring make disciples; pre-developed programs and resources do not. If you're troubled by the number of young people in your parish who leave the Faith year after year, then open these illuminating pages and learn the art of forming young disciples.
