The younger generation is a group that still has high enthusiasm, a productive spirit, a lot of energy and a high level of creativity. Smart, brave, critical, caring, optimistic and tough generation. This will be a good starting point in continuing the construction of the church in the future.

This young generation has an important role in the ministry of the church. Their involvement in church activities and services is highly anticipated. Because with them, the church can grow rapidly. However, the church experienced difficulties and obstacles in the process of reaching these young people.

The church must have a special and unique way to invite and embrace young people to be active in ministry in the church. One way is for the church to reach out to the younger generation through existing technology and media. Because today's young generation is very modern.

The technology that churches can use to reach the younger generation could be church software. Here are some ways the church can engage the younger generation through church apps:

Communicate Often

Church apps can help churches communicate with young people more often. In this software, the church can save the contacts of the younger generation, from social media to personal contacts such as Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and others. If the church is in contact with the younger generation, then the church can be more easily connected and can communicate and interact more often with the younger generation so that it can invite the younger generation to be more active in church services and activities.

Group Category

The group category feature in the software helps churches to be able to create special groups for the younger generation. In groups, the church can share information about God's word or about activities and services in the church. This can make the younger generation more enthusiastic and active in church ministry because they can gather with their peers. Apart from that, this group feature can also be used by the church to group the younger generation according to their talents and interests so that the church can also assist the younger generation in developing their potential talents and interests.

Auto Message

This automatic message feature can simplify the work of church ministries in terms of sharing information or service reminders for the younger generation. With this feature, the church does not need to manually contact people individually to invite or remind them of their service time or hours.

Those are some ways that the church can do when using church applications to be able to follow the younger generation. But to be able to do all that, the cooperation of every member of the church, especially the younger generation, is also very much needed.

Dengan kerjasama yang baik antara generasi muda dan gereja untuk untuk saling menolong, memperhatikan, dan mendukung akan membantu gereja untuk bisa bertumbuh dan berkembang. Karena jika gereja sudah bisa mendapatkan hati generasi muda, maka mereka akan dengan senang hati melakukan pelayanan bagi Gereja.

With good cooperation between the younger generation and the church to help, care and support each other, it will help the church to grow and develop. Because if the church is able to win the hearts of the younger generation, then they will be happy to do service for the Church.

One of the best technology that the church can make use of is Erista. Erista is a church management software that is easy to use and affordable to churches of all sizes.
