John,

I love this comment...just what our bishop would say!  I've actually been thinking about this issue and contemplating a discussion with our bishop.  He thinks being there for confirmations is enough.  Without the young the future of our church is nill...and our bishops are leading the charge to dismantle the church.   They are so out of touch with the youth and have lost most of the adults because of their hardened hearts, there's not much left.
