1 RECRUITING INSIGHTS RECRUITING YOUNGER MEMBERS Millennials Patrick M. Maloney, PSD Membership & Programs Consultant Supreme Council
2 Understanding Millennials Typically struggle with Identity and are transient; Grew up without defined Religious practices & in a fluid family structure; Mindset is based on intuition & experience before theory; Can spot a fake a mile away;
3 Who are the Millennials? Age gap is between 18 years and 34 years old. There are two groups of Millennials: Leading group ages 26 31; Trailing group ages 14 25; Group differences appear to be how they have matured with their life experiences.
4 Understanding Millennials Belonging happens first then conforming behaviors before changing beliefs; Mindset is based on intuition & experience before theory; Millennials are Philanthropic in many different ways;
5 Understanding Millennials Traditional Membership models are meaningless to them; Long for authentic leadership that welcomes their ideas & contributions; Desire Mentorship and interaction with the older generations;
6 Some Data on Millennials who say Church is not Important 39% say they can find God elsewhere; 35% say church is not personally relevant to them; 31% say church is boring; 20% say God is missing from church; 8% say church is out of date;
7 Other comments about Millennials who say Church is not Important Generally they mistrust institutions; They believe that Faith is not compatible with Science; They believe that church is morally rigid & too political; There is a problem of evil in the world;
8 THOUGHTS ON
9 ATTRACTING MILLENNIALS. Connections to causes and people that they care about; A welcoming Community that welcomes & values them as they are and their ideas; Mixing in with Leaders and members that are living authentic lives.
10 THOUGHTS ON
11 ENGAGING MILLENIALS. Opportunities to contribute to the community in meaningful ways; A Spiritual message that is relevant to their lives; Intergenerational & authentic relationships with those willing to mentor & discipline them.
12 THOUGHTS ON
13 SUSTAINING MILLENIALS. Giving a sense of involvement, support & affirmation though tangible and faith based practices; Activities & community engagement appropriate for their life stage; Deepening of their Faith in the context of community through relationships, small groups & discipline.
14 You keep mentioning Intergenerational relationships? Yes. This is HUGE! Let me explain!
15 WHY THESE ARE IMPORTANT
16 WHY THESE ARE IMPORTANT Young adults who continue involvement with the church beyond their teens are twice as likely as those that don t have a personal relationship with an older adult in their faith community (60% vs 31%); Young adults are as likely to have an older mentor other than their pastor or youth minister (28% vs 11%); 7 out of 10 millennials who have dropped out of church did not have a close relationship with an older adult.
17 What else should I consider? We have mentioned that Spirituality is important.
18 Purpose of the initiative is to: Strengthen our Catholic Parishes Support our Families - Families are Building Blocks of the Parish Provide Fraternity & Spiritual/Social Development of Catholic Men in Councils and Parishes

21 Are there any other benefits that might be of interest to younger members Absolutely! Let me explain!
22 Did You Know? Do Young Families Know? Some Family Fraternal Benefits KC s pay $1,500 for child who dies before age of 61 days; KC s pay $750 for a child that is still born 20 weeks after conception; KC s guarantee issue insurance up to $5,000 under age 18; Orphan Benefits - Monthly Allotment for Orphans of eligible families; up to $7,000College Scholarships available; Accidental Death coverage; Family eligible for other benefits, scholarships, etc;
23 THOUGHTS ON
24 There are at least 3 Things that Councils should think about in growing Membership especially with Young Men and Young Fathers.
25 Soft entry Points of Invitation are critical; Personal initiation into a project for getting the experience & ministry of the KC s - a must (i.e., project, social event or prayer); 1. Wait-Wait-Wait on the F100 until after the 2nd or 3rd attending event; Soft encounters build trust & help establish relationships while building deeper conversion;
26 2. Go Narrow & Deep not Wide and Shallow meaning general announcements, group invitations or ads do not attract or work; Narrow & Deep means focus on 1 or 2 Individuals to speak to, or evangelize with; Once they see the value, they will become your best evangelizers/recruiters; Outsiders observing the change with these 1 or 2 individuals will be attracted to this same benefit;
27 Be visible & share the work that you do & the council does!; Do not be parochial in sharing what the KC s do consider District, State & International accomplishments; 3. Be an example of a Witness to Christ; Be Authentic & Be welcoming; Share the works that you do with others; Be visible in all that you do;
28 Other Thoughts on recruiting Younger Members?
29 THANK YOU
