But I don't think the problem with retention of members in the UPC is any different than other orgs. I have 5 siblings that were raised Catholic. Not a one of them continues in that tradition as adults. One of my brothers is committing a travesty by getting married in a Lutheran church next month.

My best guess from my experience of growing up in the UPC is that only around 10-15% of my friends are still in the UPC. Maybe 40-45% go to church somewhere, but most don't attend church at all!
