Today’s young adults are a part of the Millennial Generation, those born in the early 80’s and mid to late 90’s. In the most generous accounting of this generation, millennials are said to number about 75.3 million, which makes them the largest generation in American history. CATHEDRAL OF FAITH is expanding its vision of what it means to be church and what it means to engage a population of young adults who are seeking authentic community and opportunities to serve their neighbors.
