[Anglican Communion News Service] Churches need to do things differently, using social networks and technology to draw the younger generation back to church, according to the Bishop of Barbados, Michael Maxwell, who said there was a significant age gap in many congregations.
Speaking at a lunchtime lecture in St. Mary’s Anglican Church, Bridgetown, the bishop said he had seen the demographic in the church change over the years with many more mature people now attending and a gap of those aged between 15 to 25.
