Recent studies on the disaffiliation of young Catholics reveal different challenges in ministering to youth. Research and pastoral experience both show that the experience of immigration can exacerbate the difficulties of young people in developing self-appropriated faith and at the same time can cause intergenerational conflicts. Many Polish immigrant families in the United States today face this crisis at a time when the support of a wider community has diminished. This project in ministry responded to the crisis of disaffiliation by implementing the Church's teaching on accompaniment, mentorship, and relational ministry within the framework of a training program for Polish immigrant parents.To form parents in their role as spiritual mentors, an eight-session introductory training program was conducted, consisting of a weekend retreat and follow-up meetings. During this program, parents acquired a better understanding of the relationship between immigration and faith, as well as the challenges connected to adolescence and emerging adulthood. They also explored various methods of evangelization and connected them to their own parental role, especially through relational skills, such as empathetic listening and accompaniment.Comparison of three evaluation instruments (pre-retreat, post-retreat, and post-project surveys) measured the efficacy of the project in ministry by assessing participants' knowledge of the key topics presented in the training program. Overall, the results of the surveys revealed that parents now enjoyed a greater understanding of the experience of immigration, biculturalism, bilingualism and its influence on faith development of young people. Most significantly, the project's findings disclosed that these parents have now begun to recognize the importance of relational skills, such as listening and accompaniment, as a necessary means for evangelizing their children.Three areas require further study: Polish ministry in the United States, the evangelization of second-generation immigrants specifically, and the application of the project's findings to other ethnic groups generally. There is likewise a need for developing more practical ways of applying accompaniment and relational ministry skills to parenting, in conjunction with the mentoring and supporting role of the faith community.
