520 |a Many commentators have noted that individualism and consumerism have influenced how people in Western societies engage with religious traditions and institutions. This paper examines involvement with church through services and other activities among 4,161 pupils attending Catholic secondary schools in Australia in 2011-12. Participants were asked how often they attended worship at a church, and whether or not they had in engaged with other activities run by churches during the previous 12 months. Those who attended other church-related activities but not worship did not affirm as strongly as those who attended worship that religious faith helped shape their lives. However, they affirmed the importance of faith more than those who had no connections with a church, and they were also engaged in giving to charity, fund-raising and participation in social justice activities more than those who only attended worship. The results suggested that some of these young people were engaging with church in ways that suited their particular interests, rather than the expectations of their families or church community. In the effort to engage with young people, churches would do well to provide ‘many doors’ into a variety of activities through which connections can be made.
