In your religion and regarding kids and youth?
Do you have a lot of kids and youth that come to your church without their parents? I was curious because I have seen questions from atheists regarding indoctrinating our children and such, but in the Christian churches that I have been involved in there are a lot of kids that come on their own because they want to and their parents are not Christians and never come to church.
So do you have a lot of kids without parents coming to church and what religion?

There are a few.
My cousin told me once that a lady from Poland, visited her church.
The women stayed at my cousins house.
This women told my cousin, that there are so many kids in Poland
that have a hunger for Christ. They have a hunger for the Word of God.
She stated that, these kids sneak out of the house to attend,Church.
She said that so many attend with bruises all over their body's, some with broken bones. Abused by their parents, because the parents don't want them to attend church.
These kid have a void in there hearts, in there lives.
Praise God, that it is a hunger for His Word, His Grace, His Mercy,
His Love, His Salvation..
How sad..
And yet what a Testimony!
Welcome these kids, with open arms. No questions asked. When the church or youth are having a gathering here or there. Pay there way, so that they too may attend and have a great time if money is needed.
Blessings to you !!!

There were a lot but we have trouble controlling those whose parents are not saved because they tend to be unruly and come for the wrong reasons sometimes---they want entertainment, and fun, a snack and whatever we have to offer. But for the teenagers, they make this choice maybe for the same reasons or not. Most of the kids have parents who come to the church. At one time we had a big bunch who came from non-Christian families, but they caused so much trouble that we had to disband the group altogether (for maybe a year). This is a Pentecostal (AOG) church.

My brother and sister-in-law pastor a small Pentecostal church in SE Missouri and they pick up children for Sunday School & church in a large limousine. The church attendance has grown by leaps and bounds and the children always vie to ride in the limo instead of the van. Many come without their parents.

Yes, we have a bus ministry, and about 200 kids of all ages attend every Sunday. Many have convinced their parents to come to church, and now they are regular attendees.

Hmm interesting. This is the same of Muslims. Usually it's the youth at the masjid and you'll often see the Muslim daughters don hijab while next to them are their mothers who aren't covered. That's interesting
