Biblical and Theological Questions

1. I have children who have grown up and left the Church. I have told them how much it hurts to know they aren’t receiving the Eucharist or going to confession. One of them is going to a nondenominational church. We went with them one time, but it didn’t feel like church to us. Any advice?
