Summary/Abstract: The younger generations are classified as a hope for the future in many fields. In the pastoral work of the Church, the formation of young Christians is borne by its relevance. Both the solid statistical data of sociologists of religion and our research have contributed to the discussion of such an accent by the authority of the Church. Shifting the experience of faith from quantity to inner quality and an adequate offer of pastoral activities for young people are becoming new starting points.
