Intergenerational
​Faith Formation


Presenter: Kathie Amidei
Picture
Intergenerational faith formation is a powerful dynamic in a faith community. It also may be a best kept secret in many faith communities. Churches have tended to organize around age specific ministries. While this is important, we know from research and experience that when generations gather together it can have a profound impact on a community and can create a vibrant intergenerational culture of faith. This program explores the “what and why” of intergenerational faith formation and strategies of how generations learn pray, worship, serve, care together effectively.

Designing 

Picture
Chapter Four in the Lifelong Faith book, "Intergenerational Faith Formation through Christian Community" presents five approaches for creating an intergenerational church culture and faith formation that engages all generations: 1) Designing all ages faith formation around intergenerational church events; 2) Transforming multigenerational events and programs into intergenerational experiences; 3) Transforming age-specific faith formation into intergenerational faith formation; 4) Designing new intergenerational initiatives; and 5) Making intergenerational learning central to church life​.

​Use the design process below to develop a plan for becoming more intentionally intergenerational in your church.
